What do u think of Kenstyle kit on TSX?

Hey guy, I am wonder what you guy think of Kenstyle kit on TSX? The kit is fiberglass, I don't know if it is good quality becuz fiberlgass tend to break easily if it accident or else. I have urethane kit on my accord, it is best quality than Fiberglass. But I spoke to guy at saleman that sell Kenstyle kit, he said that Kenstyle is very good quality in fiberglass. I know that the price is $2,000.00 with no paint. I don't want to be waste of money on kit if it damaged or crack or break. What is your opinion of Kenstyle kit?

Hey dzuy, I am no fuckin ugly guy, haha. I know that kenstyle is expensive to buy it. I am thinking about getting EURO R or OEM factory kit when I get tsx first, bro.

i had a fibreglass bumper on my prelude before, and let me tell you, i'm never gonna get a fibreglass bumper again...

no matter how well you take care of your car, everytime you look closely at your bumper, the paint is chipping everywhere!! and the slightest stress applied on your bumper will most certainly cause a crack!

This is speaking from my own experience

Wow, ha I am same situation with you at my garage, not not too many parts as you, I have feveral parts for TSX. I am thinking about getting one in 2005. I also plan to order 18" Volk Racing formula mesh wheel from ImportHookup because they will get more hyperblack formula mesh wheel in 2005. Right now, they have silver one, the weight is 18 lbs. I want to get hyperblack on CG.

gsgomez cracks me up.

words of advice - do whatever mod you like, b/c no matter what is, not everyone, especially on this harsh forum , is going to like every mod you do.

the thing to remember is to do what YOU like, after all, you're hooking up the car for yourself, not for everyone else.

and one last note, buy a tsx first damn it.

Those aren't Volks they are Volkner Racing which is a knockoff brand. They still look nice though.

That wheel look too big on RSX, my concern is that quality riding with lowering spring. What if your friends or your girlfriend or family want to go ride a like RSX then the car will go down a little bit and might be having trouble riding with big wheel. I think lowering spring a like 1.5 to 2 inch looks good on 18 or 19 inch. Good luck bro.

Hey Dan Martin, you are correct. I spoke to saleman at ImportHookUp on the phone and he said that wheel called Volkner Racing, and the weight is 18 lbs. They will get more hyperblack in 2005. Right now, they sell Gold or Silver.

Wow, that's a lot of parts for TSX there in garage. I wonder if you are satisfield with Kenstyle kit because they are fiberglass. I just wonder, bro. That's nice, you have many parts to get ready for setting up on TSX in Nov. One more month to go, bro. Look forward to see it.
