Ugly kit, yes, but you can tell that coloration is just from a light source outside of the shot.

I found the Subulara body kit. They won't show you a picture of it except for this tiny 20x20 pixel thing. That's probably how they sell them. If you saw it full size...

You may have to drill down to get to the right product. I believe their showcase body kit is a 90 Tercel with primer and blue coloration. I may have to pull over from laughing if I see this Tercel in person. It looks road hungrrrrrrrrrrrry.

They've watermarked the pictures so you don't feel tempted to claim it's your own.

To bring up an old subject...

Yeah... still butt-fugly... but ran across this auction...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/04-06-To ... 9048QQrdZ1

Nothing in particular stood out except for those two embedded videos...

I thought fiberglass kits were prone to cracking?

Here's their blurb about it...

"This body kit is made with VFiber(TM) Flexible Fiberglass. This is the newest and most flexible material on the market. All VFiber(TM) products are crafted with pinpoint precision, diligent care, highest grade materials, and strict quality control standards to ensure our products are unparalleled by the competition."

Too bad the front is so Fugly - "Rice-o-Rama"!! :o

'Glass doesn't have to be prone to cracking... it's just got a bad rap from folks who turn out crap in aftermarket parts. If you use a good flexible marine resin you won't have that problem (though it can tend to weigh a bit more).

The side and back of this kit isn't too bad and I actually like where the front wraps around the fender, but the rest - ACK!
