eBay bodykit ??

I know what your thinking, "the only bodykit they make for CL's is retarded" :ghey: But i saw this on eBay and i'm alittle curious if anyone has tried it out. It looks like it would be decent looking. The price is outrageous though

It says it includes side skirts and rear bumper but no pics of them.

I don't know if this is a repost or not, but figure id see what peoples opinions of it are.

..well atleast not for that body kit.

but we WERE thinking that, that picture is photoshoped and pretty much mirrored. look at the wipers. We also had people trying to see it but they guy wouldnt sell it to anyone where he was shipping from. Pretty much saying he didnt want anyone looking at it in person. So go ahead, buy it, let us know how it turns out.

it has to be fake, he said it comes with side skirts and rear bumper, but no pics of those at all, and as said earlier the pic is photoshopped. So if you buy it, you'd probably be just giving your money to him. Oh and he posted that it's for a 96-99 cl?

well i mean, not defending him, but the whole 96 thing would make sense, the 97s came out in 96

He hasn't replied to any questions we've sent him, and that pic is photoshopped.

its real. i made a call to the phone number that was listed, and turns out its some mexi style body kit shop in cali. he gave me their website.

http://www.westcoastspoilers.org/

with talking to him, he told me that the side skirt, and the rear bumper included in the kit are the ones from the black widow. So basically its the black widow kit with another front.
as you can see on the website, they do sell the front bumper individually for 360, so anyone who is interested, give it a try. i asked how many they had in stock and he said they make them there, so they can always make more.

as far as im concerned, they sound like a legitimate business, even though they sell the most mexi shit evaaaaa haha.

I wanna see it in person on a real CL before i believe its real. And there's no way in hell i'd take the black widow kit and put it on my car, any of it. What did they say the bumper was made out of?

well im just sayin the front looks nice, and if u look at the website, you can buy it by itself. he didnt say waht it was made out of, but if u call the number, you get a real employee, and tahts all they do is make custom kits and wings

Are any of you willing to buy it with money on hand?

I'll buy it and take the risk, just reimburse me for the full amount I paid (including shipping) plus shipping costs to have it shipped to you.

So you'll pay double for shipping, but I'll take the risk.

I will only make this kind of transaction with a well known member and not a newbie, sorry.

another problem with the kit is where do you put your turn signals? you'd have to rewire the corners of your headlights to be your turn signals.

it is sexy... they need to show us a real one actually on a car, and with a few different angles.
i'm sure they'd sell a lot more that way

If you have the money on hand, I can go ahead and order it right now out of my pocket. If it does in fact show up at my house anytime before my old age, then I'll ship it to you the following day but will expect payment upon shipment. Just let me know.

But please keep in mind that shipping charges to me, will be added to the price of the bumper as well as shipping charges to your place. Just want to make that clear so that there is no confusion.

So I guess the next question would be, what those shipping charges would be. And would it be worth paying double the shipment?

If they just have one bumper for my friends to look at, I can send them over there to take a pic. I know this has been attempted before, but what was their excuse?
