I'm not gonna lie, and I may get grief for this, I like modded out ricer cars, I love custom work, body kits etc. however I love American mucle and exotic imports too.

Being 21 years old, a few of the cars I've ownd I thought would look much better with a body kit.

My B5 is the first car I thought would be completely ruined with a kit. I donnt mind the addon lip kits but not a full on bodyit.

I once read a review on the internet about the B5. I specifically remember one part it said something along the lines of the b5 having a perfectly designed body, with no lines or grooves out of place. I definitely agree, its not understated nor gaudy.

2.8 is slow of course

I dont like the jap look or the ricer look too flashy for what it is, a body should be clean and flow not be all blocky and have as many lips, diffusers, spoilers, wings, or flares as possible. American muscle is a great body style as well, its not busy and it flows nicely, same with the exotics looks. I agree the body style would be ruined by a kit horribly ruined.

i should correct myself tho, there's only some car that can pull it off, my old 1996 ford probe GT with the right body kit looked very nice, smooth and streamline.
