veilside D1 GT body kit

Tax time is here and since I don't feel like blowing my refund on parts to void my warrenty i'm slapping on a body kit and rims. I've got a tarmac black evo so it will look close to whats on veilsides website (minus the mirrors) sadly I haven't found an Evo that has this kit on.

Does anyone have pics of this kit on the car?

What is you opinion of the Veilside kit?

(I really don't care if you don't like body kits and think they are dumb. I like it so at least respect that.)

also if anyone knows how to stick pictures in post pm me and tell me how. i wanted to sitck some rims in here as well but couldn't figure it out.

i think that Veilside is a good company but i don't like the way their kit looks on the EVO. i think it is too agressive and gives it a childish look. i would recommand the cwest, HKS kansai or monster sports kits which all look agressive but they still keep the car clean.

just my 2c

i would recommend another kit aside from the VEILSIDE D1 kit. it is very boxy looking, does not flow well with the lines of the car...

but ultimately, it's whatever floats YOUR boat that counts

I'd rather just get the lip from Varis: http://www.varis.co.jp/e%2Cevo8.html

If I had to pick a complete kit, I really like the look of the C-WEST kit

I'm not sure how you could possibly make the front end uglier than the Veilside D1 front end makes it. :

i say get it w/the version 1 rear lip.

i think the more variety of evos, the better! the photo of the red one is a lot nicer than that pseudo-art-photo on their site... i'm kinda digging it
