RSD Body kit in Black, w/ smoked headlights and tailights...

For a customer, thought it has a cool blacked out look. Needs some black wheels and a polished lip tho. I can't stress the quality we have invested in this kit, and it shows well in these pics, which was actually painted by our facility in CA. the surface looks liek it came this way from the factory.

Where in Yonkers are you? I live just on the bronx/yonkers border. I'd love to see that car in person. How did you do the blackout? I just pained mine with 3 layers, that's all. Looks good but not glossy

Love the front and the rear! But did they hire someone from Yugo to design the side panels? They don't compliment the front and back-they look like an afterthought! Is this front and rear available?

Since the headlights are smoked, tell him to:
- paint those grills black,
- get some black or gunmetal rims,
- lower that mofo, and
- get a CF hood.

i also have the Ronjon kit in black. It was pre painted and the finish is soo much better than stock. The quality on this kit is OEM. The time spent to make it this was must have been rediculous. I am trying to get a nice night and a good place to take pics and then I will post my car.

don't get me wrong I think the kit is amazing and prob the best I've seen for most cars...I was referring to the ability of body shops to match the color...I haven't seen an ABP yet tho!...I just wish it where foolproof but what with a car is??

Rondy, thanx for puttin up my pics, i appreciate all the comments and suggestions, my wheels should be on within a few months, i live here in alabama and we have had plenty of damage from Hurricane Katrina (that bitch) but i still have a house fortunately. But I dont knoe if u remember, but my kit was not painted by your shop in CA, it was done locally by a buddy of mine that has a shop, not bad at all for $300 painted and installed rite?? (thanx to connections) but if u guys have any questions about the kit , ask me...Rondy has put plenty of time and effort into this kit, it was worth ALL THE WAIT... Thanx again Rondy, now Im waitin for a grille.....And YESS I knoe, i definetely have to drop my car, but roads are all messed up rite now due to the storm, but I will get it done

yess i totally understand wat ur talkin about, that was my biggest concern also, i didnt want the paint to mis-match, but the best thing to do is to get it painted locally, so that if you have any problems, u can have it looked at locally w/o having to take off the kit and mailin it off

im sorry, Rondy may live in Yonkers, but im from Mobile, AL..sorry i would love for u to see my car, but not quite possible due to geographic location. blackout on the lights ( front, side, rear) i got from www.rockblcoker.com , it cost me around $100 to do them all but its totally worth IT, i wanted to clear the front ones out, but i dont wanna mess wit re-sealin the lights, so this was my only option for the time-being...

The GFGs are okay, but those Lowenharts look great.

How about these? ADR Magnus

They say they have a polished lip, but they're 20s like the Lowenharts and I think they look pretty good. Either one would look great with the kit.

neither wheel!! Both of those are $1k a wheel, go ahead and spice it up with a set of HRE's in black w/ a chrome lip... Would make that car scream!!!! You will be looking at around $1200 a wheel for some 19's in Black from HRE if you go the right route.

Howabout a set of these, we found a new supplier and slightly alered the design to differ from the Devotions. Only chrome lip, and the face is Black, Brushed or chrome.

Those are nice, but I have one question, will they all have that writing on them? More specifically the chrome? Also, any chance they'll be available in 18s?

Very slick though
