the "imitating" that is being stated refers to the Veilside kit for the Celica.

thats the only nicest kit for the tibby that i've seen so far thumbsup

Ok now I get it, it does look like the Veilside Celica kit!

Well if you think about it, if a certain kit looks nice, then they go all crazy and come out with it for everything almost. Like the Buddy Club kit, they started that on a the Honda Civic, now you can get it for almost everything.

That Tib looks real clean and the kit suits it quite well, just hope they don't go overboard by offering for almost every model out there.

yeah its the fact they copied was what bothered me and i dont think the kit flows well with the tib. i saw this a long time ago but i only posted up till now. i was just concerned with tib owners who dont know the origin of the kit. i went to their forums and said that is was a copy of the veilside celica kit then my post 'magically' disappeared. some mod must be in denial. i recently posted it again to see if the new one gets deleted too.

Tiburon - I wouldn't get the car on the name alone. Sounds like a disease or something undesirable.
Kinda like the Ford Probe, or the Chevy Scrote...

lol, it does kind of sound like a disease...there's definitely imitation going on, but i like it, it's def the only tib w/that kit on it, the front looks kinda weird below where the toyota logo should be, but it kinda does flow...

i think the car looks clean, well done, but yeah, it took me a while to find out that it was a tiburon. at first it looks like someone did a supra headlight conversion and a g35 taillight conversion to a celi...then I notice it was fatter and taller...looks pretty clean tho...id drive it if it had a 2zz in it! rofl rofl

damn, at least it makes other cars look as good as the celica grin

but what sucks is that you go up to one of these losers with the kit and they go "you got my kit!" WTF? they're blissfully unaware of facts and will get into a heated arguement about who's right. rolleyes

You know what else, there's a minivan down the street from me that has doors. What the hell, the Celica has doors, therefore the Celica should be the only one with doors. That's about what this argument sounds like. I agree that the kit looks best on a Celica, but to develope a new style for each and every car is tough. Although I feel the kit should be a little different on every car, if it looks good and better than some excessively aweful kit then fine I'd rather see that on a Cavalier than a bunch of body mods to make it look like a Supra or Skyline ore something.
