I've finally got my r34 kit for my xd2 coming. Spring kit for my 18in Venetti Tek's. Sorry guys gotta go chrome. Strut bar coming, custom paint....so many mods....so little money. Here's my question-Anybody out there with an r34 kit for an xd2 run into any problems mounting it. Just wondering, my body guy is going to let me attempt to help install.

as far as I know, 2 people have bought that kit, but they live in the north and haven't installed them yet.....

good stuff. Sorry to hear about the chrome wheels, it takes away from the sportier part.

I'm really starting to toy with the M&S lip kit, just to be different

:worthless

seriously though, i'm not that much of a bastard, but i'm tired of seeing these dumb threads whenever someone orders a body kit. i don't care if it's coming in 4 weeks and that you still need to work 2 more weeks of double shifts at circuit city to pay for the install and paint.

don't make a thread until it arrives, it's been installed, and it's been painted. save for a DYI question or something else warrented. again not an a HUGE jerk, just a minor jerk, but someone needs to say it because i see this ALL the time and i'm not trying to single anyone out...

anyway post pics, i'd like to see it.

oh and after seeing many many install threads i've heard nothing but ease with this kit. it shouldn't be too difficult an install.

search is your friend.

hey bro, first off i'm new to the board so no need to blast me like that. If you got a problem then pm me, that kind of stuff isn't cool and I'll just take off if my posts are dumb and worthless. Not cool...

your posts are not dumb and worthless, and you will see that anyone with over a NEWBIE status will be supportive of you exictment....

I'm glad for you, i can't wait to see your pics... if you need help pm me, i'll be glad to answer any questions you have...

welcome to the board, most of us are nice.

shawn :)

oh and bcware, show me the "many many" threads about this install before you berate someone who just joined the forums. For someone who is new here too, you certainly take a harsh look at new members. Chill out, relax, he'll take pictures when it gets in.

AND if you didn't notice, the title of this thread is: ITS COMING. not ITS HERE. jesus give the guy some slack.

Hey Fiend...congrats!

I've been wanting to get that kit also for my 02 GT...mind telling me where and how much you got it?

BTW...how much do you expect it to cost to get a shop to install and paint? I'm not sure what is a good price for paint/install.

Thanks!

apologies, it was an xd2 r34 kit, not an xd1. i stopped reading the post after i saw the word "ordered blah blah r34". i said i wasn't trying to single anyone out it was more of a PSA, but i guess it still made someone cry on the inside anyway. this is one of the few forums where you can get away with posts like these. as far as fitment isn't the xd2 r34 just a new front bumper anyway? and if you're going to go "why didn't you pm me do0d?" why don't you search the forums for "r34 xd2" etc and PM someone who already has it and ask about fitment? whatever i guess it's cool because he's a newbie.

you dont put chrome on a import. maybe a nice racing rim, please. :abovelol:

Elantra is not a "luxury" vehicle. dont ruin the kit by adding chrome.

Congrats.... You just ordered from Evofusion?... takes about a month and a half to get it.. :) ... call them every week!

Oh I am one who has one now... check out the post http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5418

Mine should be on by the end of march at the latest..... what color car do you have?

Color is black obsidian, but I am putting a pearl blue with flakes into it. I read in a past thread that the kit looks great if the bottom portion is painted a different color or something along those lines. what do ya think?

Pearl blue with flakes.. the entire body?..... or are you tlaking blue fades into the black from the bottom (Which in the biz.. they call ghetto-fade... well here thats what they call it... dont know why really...)?...

I definitely think you should paint the bottom section (as well as the middle bottom section of the back) a different color, black being the best.

I'm keeping the base black so i can do a number of things with the paint. But..since the base is back I probably am going to paint the the bottom section something else but I agree, the kit being solid black would probably look the best. I couldn't find but does anyone have the 04 r34 kit on yet with pics to see the outcome?
