well in a few months im planing to put on the cervini kit but i was wondering if their are any flaws to it or any other suggestions other kits?
im open minded for something

Thats a good looking body kit, but my favorite one is the street scene.

 

BEWARE!!!

The Cervini Kit looks amazing for a show car but if you are a normal person who drives there car everyday and you also travel faster than 60mph you will hate it. I had the cervini package on my car and after a few weeks it began to have problems with the scoops. In the the long run I had it all removed sold it on ebay and bought the Roush Package.....Be very careful

 

i hit 100 practicly everytime i hit the highway and did you install it or them? is there a way to bolt it on ? because i had the option of selling my car and getting another car but i saw the kit and i said how can i give up american muscle and a look like that....

 

yeah, as far as style goes, it doesnt get much better than the cervini kit.. although, i did not know that it would have problems at high speed (thanks for that info BTW)

if it is a daily driver, maybe go with the boy racer? that is one bad ass body kit if you ask me (my personal favorite too)

or you could go with blow-by racing's eleanor body kit.. its pretty nice too

 

i was talking to someone that has the cervini kit and they are saying it falls if it is not preped and done correctly ( some1 on the site said it. NO NAMES !! )

 

matt blasi? lol

just a guess cause i thought he was the only person on here with the cervini kit..

 

If you are looking to do an eleanor style S197. I suggest this kit.

 

Whoever said that the cervini kit was good only drives enough to get to a show. I have been using my autobody shop for years and they have done all the work to my Audi and Mercedes. Everytime the paintjob and workmenship has been better than the factory. They told me that the Cervini Kit looks great but the scoops twere o good. To keep those things on you have to drill 5/16 holes into the car and bolt them down for them to last. 3M tape or even industrial car glue cant stand the forces of highway airpressure pushing on them. Why put scoops on a car with nowhere for the air to go. You wouldnt place a bucket on top of the car for no reason!

LMAO!!!!!! :funnah :lmao :funnah

I have had the window scoops on my car with numerous 1/4 mile passes as well as 130mph highway blasts with no problem. Prep the **** right and it stays on fine. The deflection from the rest of the car doesn't let the 1/4 scoops or the window scoops hold air.

I'll vouch for the kit all day long. Nothing wrong with Cervinis product, I really like the LNR kit too. can't go wrong with either of them.

If your parts are flying off, find a different body guy to do the install. Something wrong with his prep work. You don't see everyones body molding flying off their cars and those are held with 3M tape. For every one person that has trouble there's at least 9 others that have had no problems.

 

what are the kits made out of? if you got the cervinis kit with a different hood so the air in the scoops has somewhere to go would it work better? i really like the ELNR kit, the blow by racing kit looks ok, but the cervinis kit is a jaw dropper... maybe you can mix and match parts?

 

AF, you can mix and match anything you want, all pieces are sold individually.

I think berg was specifically talking about the side scoops and 1/4 glass scoops.

I have the Cervini kit, but I really like parts of the blow by kit of which I may sub in later.

 

im thinking of doing the front bumper of cervini and the louver and scoops, ducktail.....also the ram air hood from them as well
because i hear the side exhaust is not great for performance.. and not as loud as rear exhaust..

so now im looking for sideskirts and a rear bumper but i dont see any i like lol


also what parts do u like from the blow by racing...to me i think it looks like crap...

 

emay, do you have any pic of your kit installed?

 

+1 lets see it

 

I have a few of it in test fit stages, but I side tracked myself over to the suspension and blower now, so the kit is sitting on the floor all painted up waiting for my slow azz to get moving. Best I can do right now is these. However, I should be buttoning everything up over the next two weeks (fingers crossed). My job holds me back from playing with my car.

Here's a shot of the 1/4 glass scoops, they were my test pieces for matching.

 

Looks badass, man What kind of rims are those ?

 

Manfuacturer is NAD, and model is "6".

 

are you going to run side exhaust?
how does the side scoops mount?

 

AF, as mentioned earlier in this post they mount with 3m tape.

I have seen some people have them molded to the car permanently though to eliminate the after thought stick on look. I think they look fine 3m'd on.

 

what im worried about is that fact im living in germany... that means i will be spending alot of time on high speed autobahn runs.... and the last thing i need is to try and find my parts that the wind ripped off with cars doing 120-140mph wipping down the road...

not to mention there are HUGE fines if something comes off your car on the autobahn and cuases an accident...

 

I assure you once you mount them, give them a pull, correctly mounted they are not flying off the car. Poor prep in putting them on will cause the adhesion to fail.

If I were to pull on my window scoops right now, I would break them before they came off. Only way I could possibly remove them now is by using fishing line to cut through the 3m tape.

 

cool then, thanks alot..

what kinda prep needs to be done?

 

make sure the surface is clean, wipe down the adhesion area with acetone or a very good cleaning agent, and make sure you get it right the first time... dont unstick it and move it and restick it...

 

so to recap on what we have learned...

as long as the kit is prep'd right then there should be no problem with the cervini kit....
