For some reason, this widebody kit makes the car look more like an MR2 Spyder than a Porsche. It certainly doesn't make it look like a CGT to me.

If you're jazzed enough to get a kit, I've seen very similar ones on eBay for about $4000.

Agreed, that black out around the rear makes it look MR2-ish... Like the rest of it through.

Ahhh, the wonders of fiberglass. Looks like something out of the movie The Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift or from the show Pimp My Ride - in other words, appealing to the 21 and under crowd.

As bad is this one is it doesn't come close to some of the "Carrera GT" fiberglass backyard butcher jobs I've seen on TV and eBay. Great thing to do your Box if it's been totaled.

IMO I think the kit looks pretty good and since it is not trying to make the car look like exactly like a GT it takes out some of the "poser" negative stigma out of it

On this site the majority of the members prefer the traditional styling of the cars and will not like aftermarket body kits and styling. It's a purist kind of thing. But what you will probably find out is that the cost of the kit, install and paint will run you in the range of $6k up to $10k and possibly more.

Personally I think that kind of money can be better spent on performance upgrades
