Widebody or factory 99 spec

Im looking at the brs widebody or a factory 99 spec. Im literally torn between the two. It would be something that is started in the next month or two. Price not being an object (even though it is) Im having a hard time. If I do the BRS I can never leave the vehicle in a parking lot, or drive it locally without having it in my eyesight. If I do the factory 99 spec parts I can drive it as much as I want and still get looks but not have to worry about anything happening to the car. Any opinions?

Dont forget with the BRS widewody you are going to spend a fortune getting everything fittede at the body shop. Compared to 99 spec body parts that will go right on and be ready for paint. Not to mention you are going to have to go custom wheels for the widebody, which is going to cost more. IMO, I like the BRS widebody, it is not everyone's of tea, but with the right color it would look dynamite. If you want to be unique and have the money to spend go BRS, if not go 99 spec and throw a MS lip and maybe a 99 wing with autoexe cf insert to change it up a bit.

Get the 99spec. The BRS don't look nice from the back. 99spec with the shineauto front fender and rears will look nice.
