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?

eh, I was in high school when the whole fast and furious rage started... so in my mind, 90% of AM kits are horrid looking and remind me of RICE. I HATE rice( still meaning the car kind)... even Japanese tuner stuff goes way too far. loud, ugly sounding exhaust that go on every civic because they "think" it will make the car go ultimate super speeds... or something.... combined with shotty put on kits. ruins all that for me.

I think subtle clean lines, with little 'flare' makes a car beautiful. but like its been said, to each their own. A lot of the guys around here who do put body kits on do a great job, and are really awesome people...
