Default update on runner bodykit

i discovered the runner widebody kit is about $6000 and installing it is difficult. Also, i have a friend that is working with the owner of vertex to import several kits, so if anyone is interested let me know.

Now who was it that was saying earlier that they have a buddy that makes carbon fiber boat hulls? With this guy's resources, we can DESIGN and mold our own kits, wide-body or evolution imitations with all the stlying cues we want and none that we don't. And we would be in full control of the quality and fitment. Also we'd have a selection of composite materials ranging from fiber glass, to carbon fiber, to polyurethane. Just an idea, but a very promising one (potentially)... Who knows, maybe even a cheap source for cabon fiber hood, doors, and trunk as well. :eek:

I beleive jimmysc400 (thats his aim and cl handle) had that kit or some other wide body kit. He indicated it took him a alot of effort to make a oem looking gas tank mechanism for the kit.
