Lightbulb A show of support!!!

Hey guys,

I'm proposing that we start a mass email campaign to a number of the top Body-Kit Makers to show them that producing a Ralliart Body Kit would be a viable buisness proposition for them.

I have emailed just about every Car Kit company that I can think of, and very little of them are even aware of what a Ralliart is, much less working on anything for it! We need to change this!!

I would like to get a show of hands for anybody that would be interested in a EVO VII/VIII Conversion kit for the Ralliart. Maybe if we send this list to the top manafacturers, they can see that they are missing a potentially BIG market that they are ignoring!!

I'm also open to any other suggestions that we can try to get some of these companies to recognize our presence!!

I think we should start by making a Top 10 List of Body-Kit Manafacturers that we would like to target.

Here is my list so far ...

Wings West
Carbon Creations
Ground Designs
VeilSide
Gialla

and I'm sure I'm missing some of the other bigs ones as well.

What do you guys think??

Nick

BuddyClub2 kit would be realy nice on this car, I think buddyclub only does honda but http://henshinauto.com/ is the company that does buddyclub2 and x2 fenders. Most of the companys just deal with the evo line, and I'm not to sure if they will come out with an evo with the same front end and the normal lancers. This is a first production year of the car so it will take some time., just hope alot of new kits come out and not just ones to make it an evo.

Yeah, i'd like to see some options for this car too, other than the evo since it isn't an evo. not a fan of the 'poser' look.
yeah.

I second that notion, Evo's are nice but its one think to pretend your an evo, its like pretending that your honda or what ever is a skyline with a r34 kit, if it suites the car maybe, but if you doing it just to it looks like it. nope. not my taste

Hell yeah a evo7 or evo5 convertions kit would be awsome, plus other body kit styles would be nice to. I also agree that no companies even know what the RA is, so i think it is up to us to let them know and let them know what kind of marketing there missing out on. So lets get this e-mail list goin, i think it is a good idea.

OK guys ... if you think that Body-Kits are a bad idea, or your worried about being a "poser" then just don't reply in this thread. I'm only looking for those interested in getting Body-Kits ... and that is not limited to EVO Conversions ... but any Body-Kits for the Ralliart.

So - who is with me ... let's get a list.

Anyone interested in getting this going .. PM me and let's get started.

Nick

goodluck trying to impress veilside and gialla... until you bring the lanevo fenders and other necessities over to your car it wont happen, because there isnt much of a market share as there is for the lanevo in terms of performance styling....

but hey it would be cool to see more kits for you guys..... now you only need a turbo kit or some oooomph in power to back its fast looks =-)

put the list and ill sign, more the merrier.....

As I stated, I'm all for body kits, just not poser ones.

Alright ... so this is all of the people interested in Body-Kits?? I gotta believe their is more than this!!

Come on people ... they are not going to make Kits for us if we don't show them that we are here!!

Let's start with 5 manafacturers then, inlcuding Accolade what other companies should we be targeting??

Bodykits will come out by themselves if more RAs are being bought, more cars = more people to buy the kits.

You need to chill out. The ralliart is very new. Accalde is just starting to make them. Other companies will follow.
