Hands down, OEM is the best. Body kits suck.

PhatBoyMR2 · 03-21-2007, 01:09 PM

I love the way oem looks but sometimes the mr2 is meant to be more aggressive...A tastefully done body kit really bring the lines out in the mr2.

Ncturnal · 03-21-2007, 01:12 PM

Body kits ruin an MR2 in looks, value, and durability.

PhatBoyMR2 · 03-21-2007, 01:23 PM

I guess your right but it all depends on the person. Everyone has different taste and what not.. For example i voted for greddy lip because that lip looks like it should have came on the mr2 from stock.

PhatBoyMR2 · 03-21-2007, 01:24 PM

I think chargespeed will probaly be my next choice...once i get her running again!

mr2much · 03-21-2007, 01:30 PM

you should post pictures (or links to pictures) of each of these kits

Ncturnal · 03-21-2007, 01:33 PM

One day when it is next to impossible to find a MR2 that hasn't been ruined with a body kit, you will wish more owners would have left them alone.

Definitely! So long as you can reverse it, it's all good, just don't sell the originals.

goose2580 · 03-21-2007, 02:01 PM

yea not going to do any cutting or moding of the body to get them to fit. and yea im keeping all the oem stuff as a mater of fact ive got a lot of stuff from my parts car that i was selling but decided to keep.

i love the way the toms looks but the greddy lip takes a very close second in my book. the toms because it looks like the stocker just larger. and the greddy does look like it could have been a factory option.

I'm firmly with Brian on this one. OEM FTW!

I have yet to find something that is nicer than the 93+ OEM. My 92 is nice but I would rather have the one piece lip.

RePete · 03-21-2007, 02:39 PM

Is OEM under 'other' in the poll? That's what I'd vote for.

phzoinkMKII · 03-21-2007, 02:39 PM

I used other

Turbo- · 03-21-2007, 03:00 PM

oem 1993+ front

$krillz · 03-21-2007, 03:18 PM

there is nothing nicer than the 93 lip, all other lips don't flow with the line of the car and look WAY too big and bulky. it looks like the car got puched in the mouth and ended up with a fat lip...

OEM all the way. wouldn't change a thing.
