David P Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) As per title, post up what 'improvements' would put you off buying one. Here's a few of my grimaces. Any Veilside tat. Any bonded-on blended-in body-kit bits. Lairy coloured interiors and dash panels. 19" - 20" wheels. Engine bay component hiding.

Guest Big T Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 As per title, post up what 'improvements' would put you off buying one. Any bonded-on blended-in body-kit bits. This is a huge off put for me. Then again some members on here have blended rear bumpers/side skirts and it looks pretty good. I just don't trust a majority of the ones you see up for sale with bits bonded on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Blended can look great - DodgyRog's is a prime example of a stunning job - I'd have that car in a heartbeat. Apart from that it would be a lary paint colour, bad body kit and ugly alloys that would put me off. Choosing a car is a lot like choosing a woman - if you don't like how it looks you'll not want to get in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
