Default Body Kits

Am I the only one or do the ground kits make these cars look awkward? everything about the car is round and sculpted. the kits so far are angular and sharp and don't allow the car's shape to flow.

just my two cents

Well I think it's more that most body kits go so extreme that it just looks tacky.

However, I think the kits NEED to be sharp looking and whatnot. The coupe with the HFP kit is a perfect example. The coupe doesn't really look all that great until you slap on the HFP front lip because the front is too rounded, and the lip gives it a more aggressive look.

The entire top of the car is so round, that I think a body kit / lip kit needs to give it a sharp look on the bottom to make it aggressive.

I like the HFP kit also. Accolade is supposed to making a kit for the FG though and it looks pretty good.
