What do you guys think about the Eclipse Widebody kit that has a supra taillight conversion and the kit is based after the GT Supra.

I have heard so much **** about this kit for this car, about how it looks like ****. I personally like this kit except the last pic of the duckbill truck. I like it since its a kit with supra taillight conversion built into it. If I had an Eclipse this is what kit I would get for it. But my question is what is your opinions about this kit.

It's just too exaggerated. And the colour is too sissy-like.

I'm sorry, but don't put that ugly wide body kit on an Eclipse

IMO, if you're gonna put a kit on a car, and you want to look good, get a carbon fiber front splitter, and either no rear wing, or a GT racing carbon fiber wing...Then, for chirsts sake make sure you can back it up with an engine that would make Satan cry.
Also, there's a '00 Eclipse around my area with what I just said, except it's just got the splitter, and it looks nice, and quite tasteful. 8)

Bigger wheels and tires and a good paint job then it might be decent.

Generally i don't like body kits.Except if it isn't too <<flashy>>
The last eclipse is quite good as the previous i like both of them !!!! :D

so the body kit on the supra is the body kit you want to throw on the eclipse? I think wide body kits are purely aesthetic and useless. but if it makes the car look more like what you want it to be, use it . I know i would it it gave me kitty points with the women. :D

it's all really depend on what you do with it. if you put some graphic on there. get some nice rims. and i think it will look pertty good.

well i dont really like the kit shown on the topic.
but i do like this wide body kit. some parts of the kit i dont like. and the rims on this kit i dont like. and if it comes with the wing i would put it a bit more inword. but in general i like it, because the whole kit is only $750. it may not be the best one out there. but it is great for show cars. EDIT: if this is the same kit subaruwizz posted i am sorry. i cant see the kit subaruwizz posted.

I personally hate it, I just don't really like the Eclipse full stop!

puggles89
Aug 08, 2004, 6:56 PM
know that i think about it, the kit does not look like it adds to much weight. and i am going to guess that it adds ayrodynamics. in my mind i am imagining a fabricated fiberglass style. with an exaust that sounds and preforms like a pisssed of grizzly or wolf AKA the sounds most druged supras sound like. and the car is painted a nice costom bullet silver w/ dark blood red, and a bit of jet black vinyls ( not to many vinyls though, just enough to make the rims look nice). and decals. @ put brushed 17"-19" BBS LMS. and cut of the chunk of the kit that hangs over the intercooler space. huck modifacations all over the place and IMO it would be a track car/show car.

I like the kit puggles posted but I hate the wing.

puggles89
Aug 08, 2004, 11:30 PM
yea know that i look at it it could use a diff one. but i dont think it would come with the kit anyway. no one felt me on the style i think it would look better in?
what do you guys think would make the kit a track/street/nice rice car.i still think that the chunk of plastice/steel/what ever it is. hanging over the intercooler space is in the way.

Uncle Ben would be proud...I still hate the massive bulging that widebody kits produce, some are nice, but the Eclipse never looked good in any... :?

But it has pretty shotty fit. You can see fairly large panel gaps between the mods. Nasty.

I just realized what you said but this topic has been under Exterior and Interior all this time.

no it must have been moved. and the moved logo got covered by the poll thing? because I would not make that mistake.
