Default feedback on possible new bodykit

hi all
ive contacted abw about an idea for a body kit for classics. basically i would love a 22b style kit but the rear wings are too big a job for me to think about and i`m not sure it would look right on a 4 door .
so the plan is to use 22b style front wings and then use a trim that goes over the rear arch that joins to the skirts. sounds wierd i know but its what they do on evo 5s and 6s


just to give you an idea of what i mean - my ol car btw - lol
i`m not trying to make it look like an evo ,it just seems an easy way to widen the car up and i think it could look good and be easy to fit.

feedback and constructive critism welcome, if there is enough interest i`m sure the guys at abw will make the kit.

cheers steve

4 doors don't look too bad with the 22B kit.



Not mine.

Chargespeed do some rear over fender things. I have some ready to go on.
Here's a poor pic, they come in two pieces for where they go over the door.

i would like to see it when its done but yes that is the idea, i dont like how the arch goes over the bumper though, how thick are they btw
i like the flared arches but not how they dont blend in to the skirts or bumpers
