Default where are the WALD SC's?????!!!!!!!!

i know we have a few members here that have the WALD kit. Please post up pics!!!!
I've been looking at some pictures over the net and i have a couple of questions.... and who better to answer than those who have em on their car.

The picture i posted is a 92-96... but aren't those 97+sides? The front and rear dont look any lower than the sides... is it the same if i got the kit for my 97? If so,... wouldn't it then be possible to just buy the front and rear WALD kit and leave my oem sides? Or even just buy the front lip.....?


- Do they even sell it in pieces or do you have to by the entire kit?
- How many inches does the WALD kit add over the 97 oem bumper? Because it really doesn't seem too low... compared to a VERTEX or AUTOCOUTURE which seems to add an extra 2in. over oem.
- After viewing another picture of the full kit on a 97... i noticed the WALD side skirts sit higher than the front and rear bumper? It may just be the angle of the pictures..... but are they???
- How is the fitment? Quality?
- Lastly, where did you get yours? and for how much?



thanks in advance,
ayr

The picture below looks like the skirts are really small...


The lip add's on at least 2", its low...i'm only a few inches off the ground...
I don't think the OEM sides look that nice with the kit, its "decent" but do you really want "decent"?

These next few pictures show you that the skirts line up with the front & rear bumpers quite nicely...



Fitment is ok...not perfect, but not a pain to install...

Quality is good, doesn't feel flimsey or cheap...my front lip has been through hell and its still going strong...

BTW, my kit is for sale =) PM if interested

just so you know... those are two different kits. the first one if the pre 97 and the later is the post 97. i just think the first one has 97 sides on it. honestly, i love the kit for the older SCs. maybe one day.

Default Nice clean look....

Finally a body kit thats not too radical for my taste. Where do you order this Kit from and Im guessing Id take it to a local auto body shop to have them match the paint and perhaps do the install?...

I would have to agree with you on this one. Personally I think this is the cleanest/nicest looking SC I've seen on this site, or any where in that matter. I like it how he has the white paint job with the gunmetal emblems and rims. His interior is pretty sweet too. Make me want to paint my SC.....

Default is the pre-97 wald kit still available?

Just curious, I'm seriously considering ordering one but it is a pretty old kit I'm afraid it might've been discontinued.

the WALD Soarer30 kits are not discontinued. They can be special ordered. How about try www.d2autosport.com, one of the CL advertisers.
