not all of it looks bad. i like the front end. but not the rear quarter panel. they should have just made the little wide fender smooth like how they do on an M3 or RS4.

Hear me out on this one...

I have NO problem with the bodywork. This isn't so much that I find it attractive, but more of it fitting the role. My friend and I were arguing over the definition of a supercar. Aside from numbers like power to weight ratio, hp, 0-60, etc. we agreed that to be a supercar, there has to be a degree of vulgarity about the car. Think of the Zonda for a good example.

I'm not necessarily saying this is a supercar, but when you start setting world records, you're in the territory. Based on that, I think the bodykit fits the car as well as AC Schnitzer's DNA. Look at the Topster or the Tension. Totally "out there" designs that border on outlandish. But look at most supercars. With a few exceptions like the Ascari or the Z06, most are over-the-top.

But they can be. When you can pop off 318kph, you SHOULDN'T look like all the other girls. You SHOULD be the ultra-hot chick with the big floppy hat and ridiculously huge shades.

Just my two US dollars...

Good comment, and I have no idea why you got de boosted.

As for me, I dont see anything wrong with the bodykit, other than some parts that look overdone. I wish they would just remove the chrome from the front kit.
