I like Liberty Walk and Rocket Bunny body kits but a lot of people don’t. So yeah..

This may sound odd but the kit almost isn’t extreme enough. Just having the bolt-on flares is jarring, and the whole package would look more cohesive if the elements continued back along the entire car, a la the Rocket Bunny FR-S kit.

Oh boy, another stanced M3 with bolt on flares and shiny wheels. How very original.

In my opinion it looks quite good the way it is now. But different front and rear bumpers would be cool.

Yeah, nothing wrong with fender flares but the whole “exposed rivets” fad looks a little more ridiculous on such small pieces.

That fad ought to be over this year. At least I hope so. Nothing original if a lot of people do that to their cars.

Yeah, and like a lot of automotive fads that start with something functional, it goes to the point of ridiculous. Fender flares were originally designed that way so you can replace them after they get ripped off, which says something a little unintentional...

The “exposed tow hook” fad bothers me on the same level. Yeah, race cars do it, but what you’re really saying is you expect to run off the road.

“Look, bruh. Race cars have negative camber. So my car is a race car bruh.” Again, I like lowered/’stanced’ cars but like you said it all comes and goes.

Mmhhh.. I really want a W140 or W220 and give it a Wald body kit and wheels.

Erm.. the silver M4 is tame compared to this monstrosity.

That said, if I remember correctly, the JDM stance crowd (especially the Onikyan movement and all that insanity) cambered out their wheels to stuff larger wheels in the wells than would fit otherwise (sidewalls got stretched for the same reason). The “because racecar” justification came later.

I could do a lightly modded W140. I couldn't ruin a W220 though.

Really like the Liberty Walk kit for the E92 though, pretty much hate the rest of their stuff

I expect the fad to vanish this year. That blue M3 is super sexy..
