Bodykit Question

[Slowdriver]

Hi All, Have seen all the chio bodykit out there for the 8. but was just wondering, is there any bodykit that will make the 8 look like a normal saloon car? haha. just dreaming coz i drive into malaysia quite often now and i can foresee that even after i change car, i will still do that. Anyone with any idea will be great. haha Thanks

the thing is people buy the 8 because of how it looks/performs. To make it look better...easy...to make it look like a normal saloon...hard.

Don't think any kit maker will make their kit that goes into the 8 look like a normal saloon car. imagine people buying a wrx and remove the bonnet (unless they want to make the car a sleeper..which in turn..having to get front mount cos scoop removed..but thats another story). kinda defeats the purpose mate.

haha. of coz i still want the performance. just want to make the appearance more tame so that it wont get stolen when i paerk it in some carpark in malaysia over the weekend. haha

something along the line of removeable panels that will make the car look like a saloon car. so in singapore, can show off but when in malaysia, can hide but still outrun most of the cars there. haha

Maybe it is just a dream.

That's a good one!

1) Wash it very clean, replace your license plate to a malaysia one,(eg SUKOM 1), add a malaysia flag in front, stick a official looking crest and cordon off the area you park in. Top it off with a Malaysia Gun association decal to complete the look.

or

2) Stop washing it and let it look as bad as possible.

Then again, personally i do not dare to drive my 8 in. Especially to JB. Maybe elsewhere is still ok.
