Totally agree...

This kit is just trying way too hard... And if you think people want to race you now, throw this kit on the car...

Holy crap the what did you do to this wonderful car?

Concepts are horrible, Rear end looks like a cheese grater, The triple tip exhaust in the center is really baddly executed. valences(spelling?) is integrated in a way where it throws the car's design off. Please go back to the drawing board because this is the ugliest POS ever.

This would totally appeal to the guys who had MR2s and/or Fieros with the Ferrari bodykits.

Like someone else said, the front end looks decent, but the rear end is just a big mess. It's trying to hard. If anything, get the front end if you so desperately want it to look different (or more like an LFA that costs fifteen times as much) and keep the rest of the car. The stock rear end, especiallly with the overpriced optional diffuser, looks nice.

At least those kits were "kinda" subtle. The worst offenders were the ones that turned their Fieros and MR-2s into blatantly fake Lamborghini Countachs.

I love the exhaust for it. If they could just add that to my car I rock that!

But the question is, how does it sound and what kind of gains (assuming that it doesn't cork the exhaust) will you see?

This body kit is the exact same kind of blatant misrepresentation for cars as is as shape-altering female undergarments or men sticking a rolled up sock in their pants.
