Would this be a good bodykit setup?

- Wings West Big Mouth Front (Body Kit)
- VIS Racing Combat Rear Bumper (Body Kit)
- VIS Racing Xtreme Side Skirts (Body Kit)

It would look something like this (but with rims):

I have never liked the VIS sides or rear. The lines seem to match up so it doesn't look stupid. I guess it is just more of what you want

I managed to photoshop some Konig Tantrum rims to the prelude which I think helps it look much better. Here is the pic:

I like it, I like those sides a lot more than the kombat. I say if you dig it go for it.

It doesn't matter what we like. If you like it then great. The front and sides look cool to me, but the back is hard to get a "finished" look for. Mike

It looks good. The rear is to agressive for my taste, but it looks really good.

Anyone know how well the rear/sideskirts fit on the car? I don't want a kit that doesn't look like it didn't come from the factory. I know the WWBM is supposed to fit pretty close to factory so I am gonna keep with that front. I just haven't fully made up my mind on the VIS Racing Combat Rear and the VIS Racing Xtreme Side Skirts. Can someone help me out on that?

I like the styles that you picked out, just not the company. I've seen the combat rear look much better but it wasn't from VIS.

I say stick with those styles and get the parts from somewhere else......Does anyone know about Grounddynamics.com? They had some good stuff on their website and I was wondering if anyone here has any dealings with them.

the sides are a pretty close to oem fit...the rear is not at all...you have to shave some metal off the back and the sides where the bumper hugs the car doesnt snug up that well either...i have always like that kit combo but i see it a lot so it is starting to lose its wow on me...i dont feel the rear is TOOOO agressive but it isnt as clean as everyone here on po want i can tell...so far i have no complaints on the kit minus that it is fiberglass

This is the website:

http://www.grounddynamics.com/merchant/mainpage.htm

They have the Kombat rear bumper but I dunno how it fits. If that rear kit doesn't fit well on the lude then I will probably just go with a Kaminari rear/sideskirts combo.

Speaking of the Kaminari, what's the little white thing up near the front of the sideskirt?

Not real sure. I think it might be a reflection or something. I know other preludes with those sides and I have never seen it.

does anyone know about Andy's vs VIS?
I think there is another company that makes the kombat style, but I can't remember who...
I like the kombat front and rear, but not too fond of the sides. I think the Xtreme sides really compliment the rear. I would do something like that myself, only maybe mold it in for that smoother look.
