Cardboard bodykits, always good for a laugh!
Id say that with the precision of the folds and the obvious resulting aero effects, that kit would add like 150kw atw easy.(tic) |

nah what's even funnier, when fibremotive were at toongabbie in the late 90's they actually did a widebody kit for the X3 excel with the veilside front bar on it.

haha some good ideas here,
I did the same thing to a Dastun Stanza SSS, We sprayed red and blue racing stripes down the car (with cans of spray paint and masking tape) then we made a bodykit out of balsa wood, put a huge milo tin on the exhaust. We then drove it to a maccas drive through, with my mate tied to the roof naked (bucks night) and drove through chapel st pretending to be fully sick with the stereo pumping ac/dc (yes we looked like dicks, but that was the point). was a good night.
