Terrible Body Kits (Post Them)

So I was on YouTube watching videos for the H20 (Stancefest) even that happens once a year in Ocean City, MD. Just trying to at least give the Stance culture a chance since. I may go to the event in 2015 since it's relatively nearby and proceed to cry my eyes out but who knows.

Anyway I decided to Google: Stanced Ford Taurus and this monstrosity popped up as I scrolled through the pics.

Yes the wheels are still on it.

I dare you all to try and trump this body kit. I think it's impossible.

Apparently this is a CR-X.

I'm willing to declare a tie. That is.... wow. Kinda feel sorry for the young lady riding shotgun.

OK you win HANDS DOWN!! The only one that is even slightly OK to be seen in is the last one. I would just never store anything in the trunk because of how stupid I'd feel using it.

Merc eyes and BMW grille. Amazing

There are some good ones but I still think your pic wins for the worst. It's sooo bad, and the worst part is that someone was like "yea, awesome! Totally the look I was going for!"

Honda emblem (because irony?)

Bad knock off BMW grille.

Scoop....wait for it.....on the open sunroof. Not for more air, actually stuck on the glass. I zoom in and can't finally any other explanation.

there are vents on the passenger side hood scoop and passenger side front fender. Why?

The body kit obviously was made for a wider track but the profile view I can't figure out how that would work. There's several inches of space one one side of each wheel but almost touching on the other

That sunroof scoop was a great pick up right there. I think I couldn't get past the hood, grill and intercooler I'm banking on that's attached to nothing.

I think you have a point. Others seem to make their own kits but this person puchased all of his and just slapped it on there. I really would like to know what body kit that is so I can avoid it like the plague if they offer any other products.

Because...reasons.

Honestly that's all I have for you. That thing was just too atrocious. I was hoping it would be a single image. When I found out there was more and of every angle I just had to share. Maybe this kit is for a long wheelbase Taurus nobody heard about.

If you are looking for good stance meet video's , this is in my opinion the best:

Also watch the MCM meet video's, they have some awesome stuff

He converted it to a radiator. Adds horsepower that way.

I would actually set fire to this thing if I ever saw it, it needs to be put down.

Thanks. As much as I dislike the idea of doing this to my car I'm trying to at least give it a fair shot to attempt to win me over. I think if they used cars that weren't meant for performance it wouldn't hurt as much. That said I have come not to mind a Stanced vehicle as much as long as it doesn't have stretched tires and is 'bagged. That way you can have the look but also functionality when needed.

I wonder if all the German impressions also add power. If so we have a real beast on our hands. Only thing I can say looks halfway decent are the wheel arches. Even the rear looks fairly reasonable.

Stretched tires are starting to bother me too a little, but I think it is hard for people to justify buying $3000 bags for their car when there are so many cheaper ways to do it at the cost of scraping sometimes.

I do have much respect for Japanese Boso, VIP and Oni camber cars, because they absolutely go to the limit. What is your opinion on that?

Haven't quite formed an a solid opinion. I'll tell you I dislike it because of how I feel about Stance in general but I do admire their commitment so I respect it. Would I own one? Never in a million years! But I feel ashamed to say that I would actually take pictures of them because they do kind of look cool. I bet you're happy someone else is actually trying to give Stance a fair shake especially with all the bashing it gets around here from everyone, myself included at times.

I love me some RWB's, but this is a little too Bosozoku for me....

I am, mostly because I have a 10 comment long discussion about good and bad taste and stance going on in another thread.. I like to reduce the negativity around stance by giving information , but people can't seem to look past the general ''hurr dur Honda stancefags/ muh practicality hurr durr'' circlejerk that is going on on the internet.

Apparently you're already too late. We've both been beat to it. Thunderface posted the video on this thread.

Unfortunately that tends to be the way that the internet works. Hondas get ZERO love for some reason. They've been shamed and relegated to permanent ricer status no matter what. Because their "slow" and all that stupid stuff. I had a 92Si hatchback and dare I say it was downright fun with all 130ish HP that it made. It was a genuinely fun car. No power steering nor ABS. It was more fun than a Miata and quicker too. I tempted to lean towards a Del Sol over a Miata. I know it's against the Jalop code apparently but I like to go against the grain. I was thinking of a little fun car for some topless fun this summer for around $3k and could only think of "the answer" since it's pounded down our throats.

A Del Sol would be awesome, I would love to see one that is done right for once. Most fell victim to the early 2000's mod scene. I think I'd take a CRX over a Del Sol.

The 'problem' most people have with Honda is that they are FWD.

I would love to own a Mx-5 someday, before they get rare and expensive. I would turbo it. Maybe it will be my next car. Same as a Silvia.

I think the reason I like the MX-5 so much is the availability and support that is there on the internet. I sometimes get fed up with searching for things for my car because apparantly it doesn't exist and the few that existed died in the 90's or early 2000's in the tuner scene.

I like the CRX but I've already had a hatch. I want something I can take the top off or down on. A nice fun little car. And maaaaybe I'll eventually get a Miata and promptly drop a V8 into it.

There's nothing reasonable about this car.

The rear is tolerable. That front tho..... And why must you do this to that poor car!? I actually kinda want a Del Sol for a summer car. Trying to buck the Miata trend. 90s Hondas are just as fun as the Miata.
