A stupid question (Pic included)

Post by sublime19 »

Hi all,

ok now this is gonna sound really really stupid.. people tell me I have a "original" VeilSide body kit on my FTO, which I've bought about 3 weeks ago. They say its the "original" body kit.. what does this mean?
And my front lip looks like a D-cuartro.. how does this work? sorry I'm confused..
Here's a pic anyway

The original FTO kit isn't Veilside & the kit you got is the D-Cuartro lip & sideskirt. So who ever told you that your car had an original kit & its a Veilside is on drugs.

How ever you do have a Veilside rear wing

looks like youve got urself a VS wing, DC Skirt and DC front lip. :wink:

original = genuine, that is, not a replica of the original

in general, replica bodykits are made out of fibreglass, and are more fragile, making it easier to crack than the originals - which are made outta a harder material

AWWW! Curse u Kev lol... Bet me to it (post)... hahaha

    Get rid of that wing.

    VS kits make me want to spew.
    Your kit is BEAUTIFUL though!
    Definately if I had an FTO, that is the kit would go for!

    Looks awesome!
