Oi... Definitely like the performance stuff but not feeling the exterior at all. Is this a CL member? Not feeling the interior either now I just looked at it again.

The interior is stock and conservative, the exterior is modded wildy, and under the hood is.........blue.

Weird little combo.

Second best line...

"hot wheels" car models made after it (it looked a little different back then), kids fall off bikes and ran into each other, on websites, posters, etc. "

What an enticement...he's had hot wheel cars made to resemble his car. LMAO

Anyway, I kind of like it, in a wierd way. It just needs sportier, taller rims or something. Those rims don't go too well with that ultra-aggressive kit.

And that rear bumper, I don't know. Not for me, but again, with the right rims, that whole kit could work.

Not worth the money I'd say.
Not feeling the kit but I've seen much worse.
The only gripe I have is the lack of knowing how to match things. Smoke tails on a beige car? Blue items under the hood?
Oh and if those are fender vents, someone did not know how to balance. It offsets the car completely.

I have never seen that kit before. I think for obvious reasons too.

The kit has to go, is that silver CF stickers on the center console, dash and doors? that looks terrible. I think if it was half that price it would be a good deal, but needs lots of work. The M3 side gill also looks crooked to me
