Rant on Body Kits. Options

[Driver]

I don't know why, but the Veilside or similar knockoffs make me want to puke. Especially with that rear bumper. I'm not bashing on anyone's car, I understand and respect the creed of to each his own. That damn bodykit doesn't follow any lines on our cars AT ALL and it's just over the top in every way. I'm also not a fan of the "C-5" or similar kits. I love how the REAL C-One kit looks and I don't know why no one here in the states makes the skirts and the rear lip. I found a site that imports C-One stuff and got in touch with someone and priced out an authentic kit with front bumper, skirts, rear lip and hood. It came out to just over $3,000 which seems reasonable and I'd pay that for a high quality kit, the only down side is it'd cost almost FOUR grand to ship it here. Blah, it'd be so nice to have a quality replica of that kit. /end rant.

So what is your guys' kryptonite when it comes to body kits for our cars?

I think the days for flashy kits are over, Back in the early 2000s I bet that veilside kit was considered absolutely awesome.
I have that rear bumper on my ride currently, loved it at first but now im kinda over it so im gonna change back to stock rear and trd splitters (much to the dismay of all my mates who still seem to love it)
I can see where your coming from though, the trend these days does seem to be a cleaner more oem look.
I agree with what block said.
