Who thinks stock look FD is better than Widebody kit?

Yeah just ordered it last week, again I didn't order the side skirts because they look too square, I have a pair of Apexi's which look very similar to the OEM's... I'm going see how they look before I make my final decision.
Btw, my FD is white.

IMO, as long as the kit looks clean and smooth and not completely over the top, whether it be widebody, stock, 99spec, it'll look good to me. Plus, before judging a body kit, you really need to see it in person to get the full effect.
I never really liked the FEED widebody kit, but yesterday, i went to rotary extreme and they had a FEED widebodied FD lying around, and it looked great. The lines werent too extreme and it still kept the general stock look which is always a plus.
Just my 2 cents.

The FEED kits would be the only ones I will buy, IMHO.

Great response guys. Keep 'em coming.
As for me I'm just paranoia, in one point I see the stock FD lines look beatiful as it is. But on another stage, widebody FDs look nice too.
I guess I'll just go with stock looks(non widebody) with bodykit since it's true that the FD attracts a lot of attention, especially from the law enforcer. (I've been pulled over by the cops so many times since i owned my FD that my fingers are not enough to count them anymore

I'm not sure how good the Apex sideskirts will match up with the Burnout front. Both look great on their own but the burnout is kind of hard edged while the Apex sideskirts are very flowing lines.
