To Rocket Bunny owners - worth it?
 
Ok, so basically I'm seriously considering going v1 RB, but wanted to know if there's anything that people who has the kit have to say about it, that I've not thought about. Anything, pro or con.

And to get two things out of the way:
- I absolutely love how it looks, so if you don't, keep it to yourself
- You think it's "played out" - I don't care. Where I live, there's about one, maybe two street driven RB's in the entire country (I'm not in the US).

So yeah, I'm really thinking about doing it, just wanted some opinions from actual owners, not from people with just opinions.

Oh, and my car would be my daily, except I won't drive it every day since I live close to work, so I either bike or walk there.
Are there lots of issues woth rock chips on the sides of the car with proper fitment wheels?
I'm on coilovers and LCA's so that's not an issue.

Thanks!

My biggest question as well.. I've been considering but I feel as if the front wheels will just flick rocks at my doors and fenders.

Smoothed install and proper fitting wheels might actually look good.

I think that's part of the game.

Good question. Really would like to hear from some owners as well.

Probably, yeah. I'm thinking a vinyl wrap of the car wouldn't be a bad idea. Get a color change, paint/color matched fenders and some rock chip protection in one solution.
