versus Motorsport bodykit

Hey I just e-mailed Versus Motorsport and they said the bodykit for the 3G TL is in stock and ready to be shipped!

Does anyone have this bodykit already?

Last I heard a member on this forum ordered one but it got cancelled due to a crack. Any update?

I want that CF lip. That would give me the Lip, Benz-z's CF engine cover, and then a CF hood. All I need now is a CF Trunk lid and/or a CF Spoiler.

SWEET!!!!!

All of these are pictured...look at pic 2 and 3...CF lip in 2, CF hood in 3...I know, they aren't close up, detailed pics, but they're still there.

My question is what's the difference between 1 and 3 in the above list?

Front difference is obvious....sides are the same as a-spec I am sure...the rear appears to be an a-spec bumper that has been vented if you look at the black area on the bumper.....just my guess though.

That is correct.

The versus side skirts appear to be one piece unlike the aspec version.

I definitely like the front and side skirts from the RonJon kit, but the back piece is the only thing I'm not liking. When looking at the kit from the side the rear bumper for some reason doesnt look smooth the groove on the side is too much i think.

Thats why I'm trying to see what other kits are out because I'm thinking of get the front and sides from Ron, and hopefully find a comparable rear bumper somewhere else.

I think I am personally going to go with the A-spec. If you order the Versus, be sure to get it unpainted. You will want to fit the kit first, then take it to a local paint shop and either have them paint it with it on the car (bad Idea), or pull it back off and let them paint it off the car. I know Rons kits are well made and fit well from the mold, but alot of companys will have thick spots in the molds, and they will not line up well, both with fiberglass and urathane. That is why I suggest fitting it first. Ran into that problem on a previous car. I was sponsored by Wings West, so they wouldnt ship the parts with out them being painted, well the back didn't fit all that well, and I had to fit it. That jacked the paint up and I had to go back and fix the paint. So not fun. Good Luck!!

I've been looking at the front end part also, along with the CF hood. But that last comment has me second guessing the hood. I'm might still be in for the front end.

hmmmm! got me thinking now. Did you talk to a sales rep directly from Versus?

I wonder if that front bumper is small enough to ship UPS Ground. It will have to be oversize 3, which will be about $95 shipped.

Wow, it only took you about 30 minutes from hearing it's in stock to saying you're getting it...I know you were going to get it a while ago, but still...what about that budget you made? LOL

I've cut back certain expenditures which has resulted in more discretionary income.

You ordered them procats or did you decide against them?

Cut back, huh? That doesn't sound like fun, but you've got to do what you've got to do. I think it will look great on your car (I remember the photoshops that someone did a while back).

And that directly relates to your question...didn't get them...I've put all mods on hold for now. I decided I want a new house, so no more toys for me, just saving . It's against my nature, so it's very hard. Of couse, I'm not even sure if I'm going to keep the car anymore, either, but that bridge is about 4 years away.

Thumbs up I got it!!!

Well it appears I may have been the one to put them on back order. My fiance ordered the kit for me and it just came in today. I'm gonna call around for a place to paint and install for me. Hopefully I can get it going this weekend.

Anyone in PHX AZ have any recommendations for a shop? I want it done right. Any recommendations is greatly appreciated!
