Ok, so I'm now wanting to put a bodykit on my soarer and after some looking around have decided that the Bomex is probably one of the nicest but i really dont like the rear Pods and how they leave that big gap in the rear of the car. Do Bomex make a 1 piece rear skirt that will hug the entire rear bumper ??

Not that I know of, but they do have a centre section for the back that fills in the gap you're talking about

Bomex reminds me of Botox...........Gives your Soarer the "Ju Ju Lips" look

I like the front bar but the skirts and rear pods don't go well with the shape of the car. I think Vertex suits better. Or get a bomex front bar and vertex skirts and rear bar. It goes all around the rear bumper.
This is my opinion, don't mean to diss anyone's taste or car

I had full 1st generation bomex . It was cool when it first came out, but has since dated with so many other variations available. I took the rear pods off to show my wheel size and SS exhaust system.

In my opinion, my son's car looks great with only the front Bomex nose piece.

Upload

I ultimately plan to go flatter side skirts, like Debs car - Neil - help me with the brand / style please. I like them as they look like the car was built with them and are not just not add ons that stick out the sides like the bomex. I believe Debs bomex nose is second generation with the slit above the head light - a great option on the Soarers with the air intake close by.

Upload

and stay with no pods behind the rear wheels. I also plan to modify the existing Bomex front a little for a bigger air intake, just to be a little different than everyone else.

Thank you for the compliment Andreas, I agree and think the Soarers really don't need a rear pod, if none are to your liking as the rear bumper area is so large anyway. Again, personal choice.

the bomex front bar is very nice on a soarer, makes it just a tad more aggressive. if u dont want to go for the pods theres a rear bar that seem to suit the rest of the bomex kit. i dont know the name of it though. here is a pic

Bomex actually makes a middle section for the rear middle section (I think that's what you mean).

It looks to be quite honest, it needs to be 1 piece, not 3 pieces all bolted on... looks cheap and yeah.... :p

I'm with Ben Daniel,

What skirts are on the red soarer?
