Default Bodykit Help

I have been searching for body kits and I have narrowed them down. The one I have narrowed down to is the WIN style kit and I am also thinking of adding the spoiler from the blitz kit. Does anyone have the blitz spoiler installed on their gs. I like the spoiler but I want to make sure it isnt too big. Also can anyone give me some advice on where to get body kits from, anyplace that people have gone to and that is a reputable shop. Thanks for anyhelp you can give me. Also if anyone has more pics of the blitz spoiler that would help.

Rich

I guess the Blitz spoiler is pretty aggressive but the Win body kit is not as aggressive as the Blitz kit or the veilside kit or others that I have seen. It has nice clean lines , but is not overdone. As far as the spoiler goes im not even sure I will put it on there. I will probably install the kit and then set the spoiler on there and see if it looks good or if the kit and the spoiler dont look right togethor and go from there. A friend of mine that has a 430 wants that spoiler also so if I decide not to use it I can always sell it to him. Does anyone have pics of the Win kit with the blitz spoiler? And also what are your thoughts about spoilers? Do you like them or hate them? Later

The only problem with the WIN kit is that it sits very low. Other than that, the WIN gets my vote. Keep it clean and elegant....don't add the blitz spoiler (on the borderline with rice). How about the WIN spoiler?

Is that your gs? I dont like that spoiler on there. I dont like thek spoilers that just lay across the whole body. but im not sure if the blitz spoiler is too large. I have been searching all over the net for good pics of different spoilers but they are hard to find. Most of the spoilers I come across are too plain (like the stock spoiler) or I have even seen some real huge spoilers that extend 4 ft in the air. I know the blitz one is no where near that big. Why do you say the blitz spoiler is borderline rice? Later

No, that is not my GS.

IMO, the Blitz spoiler is too big for the GS. Its looks like it belongs on Hondas and Acuras. Sorta takes away the classy and elegant look of the luxury sport sedan. Just my opinion.

Here are some pics of the Blitzs. enjoy.

What spoilers do you guys have on your gs and can you put up some pics? TLEX I do actually like the win spoiler but does it come with the kit? Most of the places that sell the kit make no mention of the spoiler coming with the kit. Where can I get the spoiler from? Where did you guys get your spoilers from and how much did they cost? I was looking at the blitz spoiler on some of the other rides and I see what you mean about taking away from the lines of the gs. Now I am more confused than ever. I guess thats part of the game.

I'm having the WIN bodykit installed and ordered the Veilside wing. I like the WIN bodykit because it's clean and not too aggressive, but gives the GS just that little bit to set it off. It took me over a year to get the right kit before I finally decided, so don't rush into it , take your time. I looked at everything from Blitz to Veilside. I think the Veilside wing is the best one out there, real classy, not ricey at all and there's nothing like it. Just go to www.Veilside.com and click on Veilside USA. There are 2kits for the GS, the 161 K1, and the Executive Sports(newer kit). The wing I'm talking about is the 161 K1 wing. The Executive Sports wing looks like the RMM wing. I'll post pics when the GS is done. Just waiting on the wing so everything can be painted at once. Can't wait!!!!!

Slanted and how come it looks so small?? I think they might have sanded it down or something to try to make it fit better...
