Numbchux Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 :banana: got a BIG box from California today....wish I had taken a pic of the box..... but, in it, was this: a guy on Nasioc was selling it...I can't remember the last time I saw an RX body kit for sale, so I snatched it up. test fitting: wasn't intending on actually installing it until I got the $$ to paint the whole car. but I was in Home Depot, and saw some "Dark Night Metallic" Rust-o-leum that looked like it would match my car very well.....so I bought it. cleaned the air dam, painted it, and: maybe in the next couple weeks, I'll paint and install the rest of the kit.

Caboobaroo Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 When I got mine from Nug, it came wrapped in paper/plastic IIRC. It cost more to ship it then what I paid for it but it had to go from the east coast to Wyoming. Looks good man! I gotta get mine finished and my body painted before I install mine though. For installing the rest of the kit, the little 1/4" self tapping sheetmetal screws are the best choice to do it. Also, the factory bodykit had a strip of double sided tape on it (look close, you'll see where it is/was). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboobaroo Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I've seen the RX kit on wagons in person and yes, there is a bit of modifying that has to be done to the rear to make it fit. Basically, where the rear spats curve 90 degrees to go under the bumper, have to be cut because they just won't work with the wagon, but sedan or coupe will work fine. Also, you won't need the center rear section either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
