I have very mixed feelings about the kit, myself. If it were a car itself, like a factory car that looked like that, I would absolutely love it. It would make an absolutely gorgeous exotic. Taking an FD and doing that to it is like taking every wonderful body line of the FD, and throwing them out of the window. It turns the entire car into something entirely different. I always had the idea that a good body kit improves the body lines, not gets rid of them and builds new ones entirely.

I don't know, I don't think I'd like that kit even if it came from the factory like that, I just don't like the body lines. But you're right, turning the beautiful stock lines into that is even worse IMHO. I really like the Sanai kit cause it has the look of accentuated stock lines, along the sideskirts anyway, that's the main place I look for body lines. I think the stock sides are gorgeous, just if there was a LITTLE more added to it, in the same curves. Mmmmm, good.

so you think your **** don't stink?
1) The gap on your headlight cover is not uniform
2) The gap does not even follow the straight line of the hood. See how the gap is greater on the top right corner and decreases dramatically as you go along towards the bottom right.
3) The headlight cover is in fact on so bad that the top corner is above the hood line.
^^^seriously WTF is that man? Take some pride and adjust the damn thing. It only takes a screw driver and five minutes of your time.
4)Your bumper is warped to hell and thus looks like ****. Did you crash it and cheap out with the body shop? sure looks like you did... You need a new bumper.
5) what's the deal with the $1 air freshener? they smell like **** and block your view. Maybe that's why you crashed. Stupid air freshener on the way. You know there's better products out there right? that smell better and don't obstruct your view.
6) and 7) amazingly enough the driver's headlight cover's aligment is just as fucked up as the passenger's.
8) the bottom of the cover is below the bumper line. Is that because the bumper is fucked up or because you just can't align anything correctly?
9) what did you salvage your license plate from a burning building? and saving to remind you of that baby you saved righ along with it. At least clean it for Christ's sake.
12) Why did you paint that silver? Looks better black. You wasted your time and $$ painting that. Instead you could have spent the time adjusting both headlight covers and used the extra $2 from the spray can to pony up a better air freshener.
11) That's a stupid place to DRILL YOUR licensce plate holder. Yeah great idea! drill a hole right infront of the bumper and partially block the already limited airflow. The least you could do is get a decent holder for it. By the way you can find these nifty ones that fold back with minimal air resistance. Plus they bolt up on the inside part of the bumper so you don't have these ugly *** holes. Yo should've have gone 99 spec.
12) Your lip is scuffed. Having a hard time pulling up to parking spots?
You need to take a little bit more pride on your car before you go around giving your negative $0.02 to other's. I found 12 things wrong with your car with just one frontal picture. Does not surprise me that your FD looks like **** either. Typical hater.

^Yeah but he didn't pay $11K+ for those "mods", HAHAHAHA.
Oh, #11 I think is just light glare, not paint (the rest of it is black) and #12, didn't some FDs come like that? I think I've seen that before, but I could be mistaken. Alot of the stuff you found on his is even worse on my car, and even though I've tried to fix it, I'd rather spend the money on performance parts than trying to make it look pretty for others to look at. Just MY $0.02. But I see where you're coming from.

Due to him attacking me for stating an opinion that I had makes it seem like that would be a statement he would have retaliated with.
In all honesty I am not a fan of the that car either but he wasnt asking what I thought. I've seen the car in person and it's obvious that the owner spent $$ money on that thing. It isn't a trailer queen either. My mechanic is his mechanic so I know that he is not afraid to WOT that thing.

No, 11 was where you said he painted his lip silver, but it looks like just glare from the sun. And 12 was the license plate, I thought some came like that, only because I've seen it before.

It's unwarranted. Just because you are anonymous it doesn't mean that it's not rude. Oh wait but I'm sure you always speak your mind in real life (uh huh sure )
No one was asking what YOU thought but you FELT the need to say something negative despite the thread rules. Why can't you respect other people's taste? What were you hoping to accomplish? quoted from Montego 2 pages earlier.
just like you said, YOU montego didnt have to be rude back, especially with as zealous as you were. at least rocket 7 was the bigger man and stepped down when he noticed it starting to get out of hand, are you a sadist or something? do you feel like a big man when you tell someone off online? so what if the dudes a douche, doesnt mean you have to crucify him in front of everybody...or was that what you were trying to accomplish...maybe that's against the thread rules too.

I will admit that the way I stated my opinion on the guys bodykit was in the tone of "I'd spend the money better than you" type of fashion. That isn't how I meant it in the least.
As far as the entire me being wrong part is concerned, no big deal really. I've been known to be wrong quite often enough. Keep giving people props. And if the guy goes WOT and tears into the car, then I want to see videos. Not because I don't believe it, but because I like watching videos of people tearing into their cars the way they were meant to be torn into. I would hate to know how much it would cost to repair a body panel on that thing, though.

This turned into a huge flame war far too quickly. This entire subject needs to get dropped and go back to people showing their cars, regardless of how other people view their modifications.

I'm looking forward to actually being able to hit open track days later this year in my FB as all the bugs that were keeping me from doing anything with my car should be fixed.
