Hey Ty, Do you mean the black and white kits. The black is a wide body kit .. a bit hard to see with the photo ..

The boot/spoiler on the top one, in white is completely it looks like a BMW. The black kit looks nice but I'd want to see better photo's for a full judgement.

Here's a good guide. I personally like the wald kit which is probably the highest quality and interestingly it's the closest to the 97+ kit. I'd just find a second hand 97+ kit which can be found for as low as $250 and you know it's going to fit perfectly and hopefully you can get it in your colour.

Go with '97 OEM. Soarers are too pretty to ruin by hanging oversized bits of ugly plastic off them and stuffing 20" bling rims on with tyres stretched to all hell etc then lowering to within half an inch of the ground. Its like a beautiful woman with natural D's getting a facelift and a boob job - just ruins it.

Rant off.

suprisingly wald has a really bad rap in the states. extremely bad fitment on their 97 style kit which is a massive surprise considering its cost. it isnt even a complete kit. the front and rears are lip addons to the 97 so for guys upgrading from a 91 you are looking at paying the equivalent of 2 kits pretty much. so for anyone seriously considering getting wald it might pay to do some more research before making a commitment.

the wald kit halfway up is the only kit i would go. it is totally hot, and is just that little bigger than the factory 97+ kit. just need some big VIP dishies to go with it :-)

There is another GOO ROO who paid $250 for his 97+ kit. I'm not saying that we will all be that lucky though. As for the wald kit (my favourite) I'm pretty sure that it's plastic, not fibre glass so that's a plus. They also make it for 91 front bars so you don't have to buy a 97+ kit but you will still have the 91 turning lights.
As for the seibon bonnet someone on here was selling one a while ago.
