haha if i put a body kit on i would only be able to drive up and down my street cause theres os much construction going on right now. i swear thats all we have in london is two seasons winter and construction. they fix it once and than do it again next year.
I feel ya. I am thinking of getting a body kit but.. then it will limit me to which roads i can drive on.

Man how many times do I have to say this in MX-3.com "BODY KITS ARE RICY AS HELL!" This is like one of the forums with the most ricers. Just get over the 9 year old body kit trend. IT'S NOT COOL ANYMORE!!!

to each his own?

And I personally think that if you do it tastefully, it's not ricy.. i mean.. just because there were body kits in the FAF movies.. is that why it's ricy?

I don't understand the whole "rice" thing :|

Body kits aren't ricey, ricey kits are ricey. It's like trying to define common sense. There's lots of things that can be considered rice. I'm personally a fan of styling, but not kits. The ms front is about as far as I'd go. But that's JUST ME! I like cars with kits as long as they accent the shape of the car itself. And more importantly accentuate the style, and add to the overall appearance.

I used to like body kits too, but after breaking them and looking ricy I dont have one anymore. I just have a clean GS lip and mud guards. Stock clean look is way to go.

WOW that is one of the best paint restoration jobs I have ever seen! The car started out like crap (no offence :P) and now it looks amazing! Mad respect.
