Buying some Amuse... what parts to buy?

So I was recently backed into by an unwitting driver, and her insurance will cover a good bit of money. I already know I want the amuse bumper, the question

Kkruel55 might want to talk to Baker Nissan (Baker Tuning) here in Houston. They have full Amuse Kits in stock...i can vouch for this since i was there yesterday and saw all the Amuse and Top Secret that they just had come in. Ill send you a PM with contact info.

To answer your question tho, i would get the front, rear and side skirts, and as you said, ignore the wing, but if your still looking for a wing, take a look at Kognition Designs. http://www.kognitiondesign.com/

Sucks to hear man, the full amuse kit without the wing I think would work nicely.
Maybe do front/side/rear amuse with the Mine's add on for the spoiler down the road.

Veilside Front and Skirts, Amuse Rear and Wing :P , plus when MR Works Fenders come out they are going to be off the chain....

MR-GT Fenders

Seen the Replica Veilside on Ebay 700 shipped, waiting for Urethane or more flexible if available...or just wait on the Original Veilside to be sold....

I think I would go with an all Amuse kit. The wing is ok but would like something a little more subtle. Just looking for a good body shop that can insure a good pearl white paint match.

I've seen the amuse kit with mines rear... pretty much the best look I've seen so far. Plus with the magnetic black carbon fiber accents will look great.

That amuse exhaust is sexy as help... now if I can only get Paul to call me back

Veilside is out of business in the US unfortunately. Not sure if it's the same with the Japan side... I haven't really been following it.
