This was my soarer in Japan.. and I've always been curious what the kit was on it. I only have the one pic.. and its not very good. Anyone venture to guess?

It is Bomex. Maybe a shorter/smaller version. The 'intakes' on side skirts are smaller on your car then ones on the white one

The kit was also put on mine a good long while ago.. I'd say atleast 5-6 yrs ago.. so bomex have changed a slight bit.. and like the title says.. the pic isn't that great. Thats horrible my bf trashed a bomex kit, then the car. I got it back, revived it and the new owner that got it after I did smashed it.. go figuere.
Thanx guys :-)

The black soarer has the Bomex type 1 kit, it was the first one. The white soarer has the type 2 kit.

Actually it was frog sh*t green in color.. just the sky and camera and such made it look black LOL.

Would deffintly make sense it was the type 1 kit.. it was put on many many years ago.. I'd say installed atleast 7 ? years ago.. if not more. No idea when it came out. But the kit was cracked and warped when I got it.. and it had been on there a while when the owner previous to me had bought the car.

The duck Garden kit actually looks fitting to what it was.. but by the time I got the car.. the front bumper had 8 cracks in the front bumper. So not sure 100%... let me search the archives to find old pics of mine (scare some of the newbie's on here to what COULD happen to their beautiful soarer if they neglect it)

It's meant to look like an Aston Martin. Poor imitation IMHO.
