I like them as long as they flow with the car. Big boxy kits on egg shaped cars are so out of place. I want this body kit on my car one day

I have one, I kind of like it but I am getting rid of it and my big rims due to that fact that the roads around here don't like them as much as I do. I don't see anything wrong with them as long as they are painted and not your only mod.

depends on what one it is. Some lip kits just dont do enough to the appearance, almost TOO stock looking IMO. But, those body kits i like are hard to come by

but Kokasian the one posted is sick for sure, just enough for me [8D]

I used to until i realized 2 things:

1-most body kits are non-functional and don't actually add to downforce
2-the body kits that add downforce cost lots of money and when in gods name will i need that kind of downforce?

For looks is the main reason for them, but most look like garbage. But I'm a big fan of the sleeper look.

speaking of function the Mugen lip supposdely forces air towards the brakes to cool them, which might be a buying point to get a lip over a kit
