How to ruin your car!! add one body kit!  VWs have a unique "LOOK".. adding to it takes away the cars identity, why make it into something that its not!

see... now i think they can look good if done well, i also think they have to suit the car they are on, subtle bumper extensions / aprons and sideskirts can look really effective and can add to the lines of the car well.

as for the many many people who seem to think veilside inspired jap styled kits will look good on saxo's and corsas, well, they are sadly deluded, and need to be put down.

example:

the 'flycatcher' kit for the saxo.


please note the optional 'sexo' sticker in the rear window.... people who came up with sh*t like this should of been aborted.

I think I'm with the majority on this one - although the vast majority of body kits just look sh!te, occaiosnally they can really add to a car and make it a thing of beauty.

Unfortunatly I live in Southend, so I get to see 100's of bad examples every day - although my person favorite is the 1.2 nova with the 6inch exaust that's otherwise totaly standard - way funnier than a bad body kit!

pmsl.... i love stuff like that, i live in aldershot, which is pretty much the same, full of chav bastards, there is a totally standard pug 106 1.0 zest which rolls around with a MAHOOSIVE jap can exhaust, no joke u can hear it comming from about 30 miles away, i easily recon i could fit my head up there (not that ive tried however) but i swear there is a family of badgers living in it.

i think the exception is if you're going for the authentic rally thing and have engine/paintwork to match?

^^^ yea, that sort of thing... im also a fan if they add to the cars look.

used to own a cinquecento (dont laugh) which had the abarth body kit, front and rear aprons and side skirts... they can look quite fetching when smoothed and euro'd



^ thats got the abarth kit, the bottom half of the bumper isnt standard, neither are the side skirts... but the kit is nice and simple, just the way they should be.
