Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello all, i need some help. Should i mod the body on my MR2 OR just get a full respray, Rev 3 rear lights + center panel and keep it in mint condition!!!!

The kit i want is a full Bomex BUT ive just been out in my tubbie (1st time in 2 months!) and really liked the way it looks but in a few days ill be looking at it and thinking "It looks good but its just missing something!!!!

HELP!! :wacko:

What should i do folks?? im leaving this up to you lot as im now sick of debating over it.

Cheers :thumbsup:

Everyone's got their own opinions but...

Whilst the '2 does look sweet as stock, theirs nowt better than making the car into what YOU want it to be. So imho you should go for the kit :thumbsup:

Ok boys im just going to in the words of Silvasufa "Border it reet oop"!

Let the modding begin.

Cheers :thumbsup:

i believe the car does need exterior work to get it 'finished' the fact that it never came standard with side skirts (for a sporty car...) is quite a let down

simple bits can sort the mr2 wonders though :)

Nice one... look forward to seeing it :thumbsup:

Its personal choice at the end of the day - but im sure these lot have swayed you into modding it :D

The bomex is a nice front end as is the border - be sure to post some piccys when its finished :yes:

Posted

Nah, you don't want to mod it .. you want to keep the look stock like mine ..

I'll get my coat ..

It's each to there own mate. Some people hate MR"'s with body kits on, personally I love em. What does the kit you're looking at getting look like? Any pics??

I was thinking of getting a Bomex front splitter, and a set of Veilside skirts. About £350 for them plus paint and labour, it all adds up. So I might just get a nice set of Lenso RS5 alloys instead.

Change the spoiler, rear lights + center panel to Rev 3.

Full respray in white.

Uprgraded suspension - coilovers, so i can go low.

And these rims in 17's http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/product...oducts_id/10428
