ok I wasnt sure which section to put this in but, I was looking into widebody kits for the TI's and there are none to be found. so a friend of mine said if I could find a design I wanted and a few people interested in buying a full kit he could make a mold, and we'd have a widebody for our cars!! the ones that interested me the most was the AC Schnitzer widebody kits for the E36 coupe. or the Esquiss widebody.
I am basically seeing if there is any interest in something like this and get any input you guys have. or what you would like to see. if we all could come up with some kinda design we'd all be interested in, I will see what kinda price we are looking at to get this made.

Esquiss makes a widebody for the ti that i really like as you suggested. Copy that one and i might be interested. I do like the look of the AC kit but I dont think it can be done on ti or sedan for that matter

clubsport.. do you have any pics of the esquiss kit for the TI? or atleast some rear pics. the front shouldnt be a problem to copy but, I'll need some rear shots so he could take a look at it.
and he said he could do the AC kit if we wanted. basically he said anything we can get him a picture of he will beable to make it from the pic. and a car to size everything up. the main reason I liked the AC kit was because its a pretty rare kit, and I like how everything flows nicely. but I do like the esquiss one too.
I have seen some of the stuff he has made already and it is very very nice quality.

And what type of materials would he be using. I'm not interested in a WB kit, but wondering.

most likely fiberglass for the fenders and rear flares, but I am going to see if he can do abs bumpers. if he cant then fiberglass everything.
Although I think the Esquiss widebody kit is nice, I've always felt that the ACS widebody was cleaner. The fenders and skirts just seem to flow better and look like the car came that way. Depending on the pricing, I might be interested in an ACS kit.

I agree.... I will probably need atleast 10 people who for sure would want this, inorder for it to be worth making the mold. this will also affect the pricing(more people the better the price)

There is no ACS widebody kit for the compact. If someone has found one please post a link
I requested and received a price guide for all 318ti Esquiss products. Ill try to attach it for anyone thats interested.

he said it would be no problem to make the AC Schnitzer kit for the compact. if he has pics of even the normal coupe version he said it can be designed to fit the TI.

wow that custom metal widebody the teh HAWTNESS. I'll take one for sure
That has to be one of the Beastiest ti's ever! He has a euro spec 3.2, ITB's, S/C, etc...... That thing must practically fly. Maybe someday, my ti would would be that nice.

word on the street is that it'll be pushing 600+ hp when all's said and done. And if there's one thing you can count on, its the word on the street :eyebrow: :wink:
