I love the Kato Kombat body kit... but the thing is... i really dont like the rear bumper, so if i put a Razzi rear bumper... what would look like ?! would it be in line with the rest of the kit ?! and if someone could show me what would it look like thru photoshop !

thanx a million !!!

:thumbsup:

Well, photoshopping would kinda be pointless cuz there's no way you would be able to see the direct front and rear of the car in one view. I tried to find a black rear Razzi, or a red front Kato, but couldn't, so use your imagination, guys.

IMO, there would be little going on in the rear, and alot (of nothing) going on in the front. Don't compliment each other well.

i agree with sport, i think the best way to mix and match would be the kato front and rear, with razzi sides, IMO

i'd rather suffer with the kato rear than suffer with the razzi front.

I'm willing to bet that it will look poopty. The Andy's will prolly lay lower in the front. RowdyGLS has the andys with stock springs and wheels and it sits LOW in the front!

i see what you're saying.... thanks for the pics and the point about them not complementing each other... i agree now.... i guess it'll have to be the kato kit :thumbsup:

I could never buy the Kato, and this photo is a good example of why. It's obvious where the portion of the Alero bumper (right below the headlights) was joined to the pre-made kit front. They didn't try to smooth it out or anything. So you're just left with an indention. I'd rather have a kit that loox as if it were made for my car. I look at it and just see "two chopped bumpers molded together", but I have issues with perfection (along side many mental issues ), so it's just my opinion.

I'm no body-guy, but wouldn't it be possible to smooth it out? What are they made of?

Shouldnt be too hard to smooth that out... if its fiberglass you could easly apply some mods to it... but i think what sportalero is talkin about is the fact that its supostu be a bolt on kit... and that join does look kinda poopty IMO, for a company that either manufactures/has them made for them they did a poopty job on that one part...
But then agen if i was to get a kit it would be that one... or the un-named brand....lol
Allthou the service and whatnot is poopty there... But i do like that AAS kit

I say *** front, GT sides(from PFYC), and the Razzi rear........ but for it to look good you have to mold in the Razzi rearand possibly the GT sides.

If you like the Kato, you should get it, dirty. But BLK got what i meant. It never should have left their factory (or shop) lookin like that. THEY should have smoothed it out before it was shipped. The only bodywork we should do on the kit is fitment-wise if necessary, not fixing their defects (that's what i consider it)

i saw a razzi kit (joel's) molded, and it looked better than anything else. after that comes the *** kit (after everything's been fixed), regular razzi, *** non-fixed, custom cardboard bodykit, custom aluminum foil bodykit, then finally the aas kit.
