They would look a lot better if the car wasn't stock body or stock looking.

I think it might look sweet on a car styled more like mine, but I'm holding out for runner, vertex, version select, BN widebody. I wish they would make rear overs for our cars like they do for 240s. I like rear overs so much more than molded or matching pieced widebodies

I could definately see them working on a more aggressive car, but on a stock body Im not totally sold.

i like them, i think thats what this car lacks is the curves on the sides of the fender/ quarter panels would look alot better,
the car is too straight on the sides
too bad they dont make a cheaper widebody or at least sell one in the us ..
i would get it..

Unique, but no.

To me it ruins the cleanliness of the Soarer. But it's not my car so to the owner do what you do.

if the car was dirty and smashed up, and had some skirts or bumpers held on with zip ties, and was blatantly a track car, then sure why not.

but as is, no thanks
