i reckon the body kit looks ok.....it's different. Pi$$ the wheels off though, they don't suit it. It'd look better with some 19" 5 spokes, maybe powder coated white

Im sure the riceboys would love it. I mean, it doesnt look that bad, but rear diffusers that dont even look like they work, and front splitters that point up, just arent my thing.

nice side skirts though.

What I noticed, that nobody else has mentioned, was directly above it in the list, was an EB XR8, which at the time was sitting at $3,000.....I know which way I'd be leaning.

He's probably spent way more than 10K on purchase price, paint, body kit, wheels, and various mods. Someones trying to get his money back I think. That's not how it works, unless he finds some sucker. Personally I don't like the body kit or wheels.
