Default Re: Xenon Body Kit: Nice or Rice?

I have been seriously considering purchasing the Xenon kit for my car. The bigest reason is that it looks like it would keep air from packing underneath the car at high speed yet leaving a big enough opening for air to get to the radiator up frot. I am still working on trying to figure out how I can get a splitter to incorporate onto the nose piece.

Anyone have a link to thier website or who has the best price on them?

Simple: Hood gap is terrible(it must be an aftermarket hood)If the zoom works correct(with p.shop)i saw Color difference and some signs of bad installation of the grill on that picture.
I am not %100 sure but it looks like a bad installation.+ and those are not Xenons side pieces (maybe the owners likes that way)

do you have a part number for that? I couldnt find it on the web site. All I found was the body kit pieces. I also need a link to where I can get the nose piece from Xenon. I will have to fabricate the splitter from sheetmetal. I am finding out that there is no one that makes functional areodynamic parts for our car. I am going to be fabbing quite a bit on my own.

Hey i have Wings West kit with the bigger air deflector. My car isnt lowered and the damn plastic piece is like 3 to 4 inches off the ground, it scrapes most things. The Xenon kit was made not to have a lower air deflector and justed used the stock piece.
