I like the stock body too.. but I don't like the frame rail that you can clearly see down the sides of the car.. even painted it looks crappy. So, the only way to fix that is side skirts.. then your front and back wont' match up with the level of the side skirts.. so you gotta get a body kit.

I agree. Not to mention that a big nose is just going to get scratched and drag. I like the original best.

1. You can be unique and SUBTLE with an OEM lip
2. I would rather be subtle than try TOO HARD to be different ...and yes there is definitely a fine line between good taste and bad

eh if you say you absolutely love your mr2 and want to transform every part of the car so you can't even tell it's an mr2 anymore then you're lying cuz an mr2 isn't an mr2 without original mr2 parts, but that's my own opinion :-P

I really think all of this mess about body kits having no place on our cars is absurd, where do you think the idea of these kits originated from? It's an aerodynamic enhancement. Sure most kits don't have any wind tunnel testing, your argument about performance mods totally covers functional aerodynamics. Also someone said they only do performance based mods, so whats the deal with your clear corners mod, doesn't seem functional.

Abflug, Ask Sport, Border Racing, Bomex, Top Secret, Version Select, Origin, BN Sports, etc ALL have wind tunnel testing completed on them AND are proven to work in the sports they were designed for.

......um, you could, i don't know, maybe check on madpsi.net under authentic imported kits and then click on the Phoenix Power (Garage Fukui) link. Maybe that's a start?
