Some previous thread was asking about body kits (myself included) and I found this on the NOPI online store (you can figure out the URL...) It looks like another kit (can't remember the name) and what I read about that particular kit, it only fits the '99-'01 design... the Type-S has a different front bumper so the kit won't fit. Is this true??

Here's a picture of the kit:

Am I allowed to post a picture? Well, sorry to the mods if I did not follow the rules but I am quite curious about it. It's significantly less ($580-ish) than the OEM Honda / Acura kit ($850). Please help. Thanks in advance.

that is the wings west kit, and i don't think that it fits on the 02s and up because of the different bumper.

 

yep, wings west...... i was thinking about getting the factory front and the wings west side and rear..... any suggestions on how that would look?

Dont forget the factory kit comes painted with factory paint so the paint will look perfect......and the wingswest comes unpainted.....so really it's not that much cheaper.....I would just get the factory kit for the TL-S

 

I've seen a SSM 02 with OEM front and WW side, and it looks quite nice. The WW side makes the car stand out a little bit more than the OEM side does in my opinion.

 

You can get the kit painted from Wings West. I did and it matched my car 100%. I couldn't believe it myself. I saw a WDP TLS with factory front and WW Sides and rear. It looked good for those of you who are thinking about doing it.

 

Black TL and the others who replied,

Thanks for the advice -- I ended up getting a sweet deal at a dealership in Toronto and got the OEM kit. Bought the 3A tips over at the Pep Boys in the Detroit area and now it's time for the install... any pointers?

Are you sure that teh WDP kit matches perfectly? I've seen alot of WDP bodykits, in the show rooms and on the street, and they don't match...this is one of the reasons why i'm hesistant to get a body kit. My factory bumper doesn't match, my factor side moldings don't match....
