Heh. I just won 3 out of 4 categories in a car show this past weekend of 50 participants with a 100% stock body'd car. Stock wheels even... from a cheaper non-turbo model... 2 years in a row I've won King of Bling. Apparently even the judges liked it better than all the cars that turned out with body kits. Whee. I'm entitled to brag. I'm the ****er with the trophies. :P
But in reference to the widebody kit... you'd better have already bought/modified/upgraded/polished everything else on that car... to make enough torque and traction... to need wider wheels and tires... or the body kit will be non-functional making your car the textbook definition of rice. The average cheap paint job is still over $1500 in addition to the kit and installation. There are so many better things to spend your money on, like college, or a closet full of bitchin' threads which will be far more effective with the ladies.
