What is a bodykit? GTI asks Dizzie

[Cupra Turbo]

Well now folks, a bit of funny banter in the chatroom.

What is a bodykit?

Dizzie thinks its a bumper.

Me and Modulator reckon its the little plastic bits u clip onto ur bumper and onto the sides (side skirts) and possibly i high up spoiler at the rear.

So.

I ask the jury

Which of these two cars has a bodykit?

Exhibit A



Exhibit B



Which has a bodykit?

As u can see, Modulator is gonna cut his grass with a lawnmower which has a bodykit on it?

LOL

[Dizzie]

actually you twisted my words there
I merely said that the mk2's big bumpers were a bodykit.
following what you said a bodykit consisted of you actually confirmed that they were a bodykit seeing as there are front and back extensions and side peices to make the car seem lower and wider

[Cupra Turbo]

Thats why I put the text of what we were saying in as a reply.

Funny read ... but it took ages to filter out the swear words! LOL!

[vixteris]
