If you're talking about the bodykit, check out RonJons kit. His is very classy, but nothing ever came out as far as the Sema CL goes.

I drove the ABP Comptech SC'ed 6MT about 3 years ago and that drive convinced me that I wanted to build my own.

It looks very nice, but very costly because it doesnt fit directly. It requires some modification.





BLKCLP's hot ride.

Since you've already have a 6spd, put on the RonJon Kit, and buy everything that Comptech makes for our CL's... (springs, sways, strutbar, supercharger, exhaust, etc etc).

http://www.ronjonsportdesign.com/clkit.html

http://www.comptechusa.com/store/cl.html

Ronjon's kit is the closest thing to the Sema kit... so while you won't be making an exact copy of the Sema CL, it'll be close enough for government work.

Hmm... it doesn't look like the maya website has the DTM's listed... so just buy rims from ronjon too

SMR with ronjon kit:

Yeah, but I think the OEM TL kit is getting hard to get... Aren't the OEM TL kits like 800 or so (if you can find one) ?? I'm sure used ones are out there, but I think even those are pricey too...

yea the most expensive part is finding the kit. i found a front lip on ebay for less than 200 so its all in where you look and how patient you are. i think piecing the kit together seperately saves alot of money.

ahhh. The Elenor of CL's rears it's head again...

No matter how hard you try you cannot duplicate that ride. That's very clean.

The wheels are one offs (yeah, there are some look-a-likes out there)

Oh (I could be wrong) but I don't think that is a factory color either

The wheels are not one offs, they are Maya DTMs.

The color looks like SSM. Its possible its different though.

That car can be duplicated in every way except for the kit and spoiler (there are similar lip spoilers out there though).

Wow! Maya DTMs. I stand corrected. And what a nice wheel it is

I really don't think that's SSM though.

And yes the kit is mostly is what I was referring to (and the wheels, but...).

I would really like to see one on the street, just like that.

The DTM's only come in 19 and 20 I believe. I looked all over for them and that's what I came up with.

I think someone here rolls on Mayas.... I dont think it's exactly the same style wheel though...

I forget who it was =/. He had them re-finished in anthracite color? Mantis I believe?
