    Default Bodykits going too far?

    I had a quick search but didn't see this posted, I'm sure over the times many of you have seen it before but I thought I might throw it up.

    Basicly some japanese people take an NSX and turn it into something else. I won't say what, though please be warned. The page is top to bottom with pictures. LOTS of them.

    The NSX is already a supercar.

    Toyota MR2's are often turned into ferraris.

    as good as those kits can look, i reckon its an insult to the manufacturers of the legitimate cars. How disgraced would you feel driving an actual f50 or the like and then pulling up next to an nsx that some genital head has decided he would rather be a ferrari. Shame on the creators, looks great, but shame!

    i think it's fine to put any kit on an exec as long as you don't put the badges on it cause that's wrong
