    WHY?

    1. well done body work.
    2. Proper fitment
    3. Wheels fill in the gaps just right.

    Compare that to the fit & finish on your Chevy Camero!

    You think you would say that if it hadn't appeared in F&F?

    Most people i've met who dont like the Veilside kit, dont like it cause of the film and when i ask them if they hadn't seen the film they might have actually thought different of it.

    I think that it is one of the best rx7 kits but that's just me.

    i are right about the "exotic stock look".

    It does beg the question....why mess with perfection.

    ANSWER: because you can. They're kits that complement the factory lines and add more to them.

    Check this. You said Lamborghini but this Fabulous JP MB SL500 & Ferrari explain it better.

    Fabulous F430

    I was working on making my car as stock appearing as possible. I do have a love for the factory EF appearance. I really don't much care for body kits either. Not as a trend, I just didnt like them. However, with the order of a new t3/t04e kit, a ton of suspension and fuel components, and some other things, I came across this kit while browsing, and decided It wouldn't look bad. After looking more and more at my car, it was a far cry from stock. Now now i'll be sporting this kit, and working with what I've got.

    i think unless it's a true mugen kit... nothing needs to be on a crx.

    If you really like that kit, then go ahead, but i wouldn't.
