Re: Body Kits for an Eclipse

Yeah Veilside makes sick stuff. I like that talon kit. I really like the 2g eclipse kit too.

Re: Body Kits for an Eclipse

Most ebay kits fit very poorly and have lots of manufacturing defects

thats not the right one, I was talking about the Veilside ECI.

But to the starter of this thread: Me personally I wouldnt buy a body kit off ebay. Cheap bodykits are made cheap so they are never going to fit right, and in the end they are going to cost more to install than a quality bodykit because cheap ones usually have to be modified and what have you, where quality ones simply bolt up. And most of those cheap "styled" bodykits are made by a million different companies and were all ripped off and copyed from original manufacuters which is why I chose not to give these kind of companies my money.

I would much rather pay a grand or two for a good quality name brand bodykit but thats just me. Because in my opinion when it comes to parts you get what you pay for.

But whatever, buy a cheap one if you want.

I bought mine from ebay, it came from a wholesaler from extreme dimensions. it had a few issues but the bigger things were that it took like 6-7 weeks to get it and they sent the wrong year for the front bumper and then wouldnt do anything about it. I would still buy one from ebay again just make sure you can have some recourse if theres a problem. Oh and dont get fiberglass.
