perfect. that's exactly where i was coming from.

some folks seem to suffer from moderator envy; they're more worried about pretending to be one than living their own lives.

Sorry, but I disagree.

While most body kits look like they could be applied with double-sided tape, I think this one looks very smooth, and gives the C4 a more modern look. When the C4 came out, it looked good, because it was trim and sleek, in comparison to the rather stodgy appearance of mid-80's cars.

But most manufacturers have since gone that direction (sleek), and left the C4 behind...

If I could get my hands on that kit, it *would* go on my Black Rose car.

Regards,

Eric

i'm definately a lover of the Callaway Aerobody and the Shinoda/Mears kits.
THO, IMO the Greenwood kits can look great on the right car. all comes down to the color combo and whether its a coupe or a vert. some look NICE!
some of the *** designed kits look nice too. theres a silver vert in the C4 gallery somewhere that looks striking!
In terms of Corvette body kits the only real generation that had potential was the C5! the C6's just can't do it!
