body kit or non body kit

Do you guys prefer body kits or leaving the cars body stock? Just wondering cuz i like both the body kit and the way it looks stock, i cant decide. The RX looks good both ways.

I think an S5 body looks best. Otherwise, the RE Amemiya FC2000 kit looks nice too.

GP sports = $$
R. Amemiya (sp?) = $$
Corksport = looks too close to stock to waste money on (imo)
It just depends, some body kits look so gay but i like the amemiya and the GP sports

I like stock, and kits. If I wouldn't have gotten a deal on my CS nose, I don't think I'd've ever put a kit on it.

Personally I love the stock S5 body. But if I was to get a kit the only one I would get right now would be the Cork Sport TypeII. I like it cause you can tell its got a body kit on it but it still retains the stock look to an extent of being a clean and nice looking car. I'm not a fan of all the big aggressive looking body kits, its the subtle ones that catch my eye. When I get a kit for my that will be the one probably.

Stock with a front lip and nice looking 17" aftermarket wheels is THE BEST!

IMHO i wouldn't use money on a body kit. They S5 body with a nice lip looks dead sexy. Plus then you can use money on other things, performance upgrades, maybe a nice paintjob

i like the erebuni kit and bought one for myself last week. Its going on soon and my car is getting repainted. It was a little costly but not nearly as bad as some of the wide body kits. I cant see spending $4500 on some fiberglass
