Wide Body Kit

Anybody know any food places to get body kits for a 78 280z. I seem to having a hard time finding a wide body kit.

GOOGLE is your friend. I typed in "280z wide body kit" and hit the mother load.

Black Dragon Auto & MSA sell (or used to sell) body kits too. w00t! Most people just go w/ fender flares because wide body kits are an absolute PITA and cost a lot too.

only one WIDE-body kit out there i know of. thats teh bob sharp IMSA style kit. good luck finding one of those, especially one that doesnt cost you 1400 dollars. also, i dont think they allow for the headlights and such to be used, wide bodies are for REAL race cars, not for people that want it for cool effect fyi. you need fatty *** tires and rims to fill up those fenders.

G-nose and fender flares look good. You can get some wide fender flares if you've got 12" wide wheels. Also, you'll have to get your food elsewhere. I don't think MSA sells food.

I like the way that MSA front dam/bumper looks. So happens it's on sale for $169 plus food. I'll put it on my '77 with a 260 rear bumper I have, filled it in and paint to match. That wide body kit would end up costing way to much.
