Hey you guys,

I have found an interesting website with an interesting bodykit for our beloved car.
Are you going to love your car more if she would wear this bodykit??

or would you start hating her because of her big muscles

Only 2 more weeks till my baby is here Jipieeeeee!!!!

I think that the front might be a little much, and possibly the back, but I love the side skirts, and those wheels look sick

Wow

I think it looks excellent! Something about the front end doesn't FLOW like the way the curvy MINI does but zeemax is on to something definitely.

I think it looks great now, but it may appear dated in a few years when the whole rice thing wears off. I think the standard aero kit is more classy looking and timeless.

not bad... except for the train-style cow-catcher. and i agree with Motorthis. it does have a distinctly japanese styling about it.

That kit has Uncle Ben's written all over it. IMO, it is screwing up a good thing.

Some very good ideas in the design, just poorly executed. The mesh widened grills are a cool idea, but the shape is not well done and the tiny inlets that go nowhere aren't "winning hearts and minds" to use the phrase du'jior. OOPS French - party foul.

I'll throw in my .02, but it has been mentioned a few times already.

zeemax body kit

Zeemax Body Kit (Yes, it's a separate thread, not a duplicate of the first link.)

A quick mention here: New body kits

And another mention here: Any Uncommon Aftermarket parts?


...now I think the side skirts look like running boards for a Suburban. The front isn't bad, but I still prefer the OEM aero front.

Is it just me, or does it sort of have an unfinished look? It may be the photography, but the surface does not look as smooth as the body.... and it's pretty busy. I do like, the black dash and warm leather interior... looks like a totally differant car.
