Smile What body kit is this?

Hey guys

Firstly, I hope this isn't against the rules, if it is please remove it.

Now onto the action, I've been wanting a 86 for a while now, and I came across this one, now I've contacted the dealer and they have no clue what kit it is and they don't have the contact info of the previous owner.

Does anyone here know what kit it is? The fog light part is the most confusing when i was comparing. (2014)

I was going to say UGLY, but then I saw the red one in the link, not bad. The white one is just painted wrong.

I agree, I wouldn't keep white if I got it, im a big fan of wraps and my cars tend to stay wrapped for a couple years under coating.

I probably won't get this 86 just because of that gap between the fender and front bumpers angle increase

if the bumper/fender sag is what is holding you back, just heads up I'm not sure I would worry about it as that will be a pretty common issue especially with older twins since many folks have removed their bumpers to swap headlights or in this case another bumper..but then again I don't know your market, so perhaps there are more options out there to watch for but just FYI it is pretty common..

to me, the fitment looks pretty good on that kit, certainly seen plenty that have terrible & uneven gaps across hood & fenders...I agree that since they did not paint the bumper correctly looks a little shitty, but otherwise from the grainy pics it aesthetically looks alright.

Ya, get rid of about 80% of that black and it would be fine. Well as fine as a white car ever looks.
