Had one of the original kits on my tC for a while. Everyone seemed to love it. I did as well for a long while but then I sold it and shortly after sold my tC. Kinda miss it once in a while but the new car always shows me why I sold my tC.

So is there a projected due date for a rendition of the kit that will be available for viewing. Maybe you could receive some better feedback if one was offered. Computer generated pics would be a good start.

We are considering doing both lip kits and full fascia kit. The problem with not offering a full fascia kit is, under the Gen1, we have the only Urethane full fascia on the market. Also, under the Gen1 we made a lip kit for a few different private labels within the tC world which meant we could not ethically make our own lip kit. But for the Gen2, we are not making any lips for private labels, so we will likely do a lip kit!

Once we have a few final rendering choices, we will definitely be bringing you guys into the loop for opinions!

Wings will be included and we will likely do a couple different designs, lip and pedestal wings.

I loved my old kit, I agree with everyone, Both a lip and body kit would be nice. In the 5 years, the tc has been out, no company has ever made a nice rear diffuser for the car. The Kaminari sort of had one in the rear but a true rear diffuser would look sick!

I feel like a little child in a third world country, gazing into the window... scratching and tapping.... just waiting for a glimpse.... just a small glimpse... of hope... hope we refer to as car pride.

Hopefully the kit won't make us feel like kids at Christmas who opened their presents only to find grey toe crew socks. I hate socks for Christmas.

I know this is exactly what you wanted! We are working on it...there seems to be a little delay each time in getting changes back from our rendering guy...

LOL.... Thats my colors too. At least they are hand knit and don't have a gigantic HANES logo on them.

On a serious note, I know I mentioned it before, but are yall planning on coming out with a hood as well?

I am hoping for a reverse cowl design...

like the first gen ones that Kami makes, but closer to the front of the car... I think the first gens looked a little akward with it being set back as much as it was... OH and without the wierd bump around the opening, flush is nicer looking IMO, with a more angled line than the rounded ones of the first gen......

Wow, to go on Pickel's note from a few weeks back, this is like Christmas every day. Each day I find a new and exciting thread. Hurray! (yes, I'm aware my monologue wasn't nearly as creative as Pickel's)

Anyway, I would like to see a bumper with a brake/engine compartment vent. A number of the air intakes I'm seeing put the intake at the lower, driver's side corner of the engine compartment. Channel of sorts would compliment them very nicely.

^ This.

How about making a true rear diffuser for the tC1? It's not too late...

The 1st gen kaminari kit looks fine. However the front protrudes out to much. When I had my kaminari kit on my car, my friends told me everything look fine except for the front cause it sticks out to much.
