I think it's cool...wouldn't want mine like that, however, I think it's just the wheels that make it look ugly...18" rims with low profile tires would dress it up a lot...

This thing looks like a Hot Wheels car. I guess I like boring much better.

I've seen this kit on a number of C4s. People do it because they like the way it looks. There is nothing wrong with personalizing a car so that it is "yours"

I do not like the rear spoiler, nor am I a fan of the rear hatch replacement.
I do like the ground effects though. I think that style of rear spoiler is simply butt ugly. I would prefer one more on the lines of the C3 cars had.

That car made the rounds at a few car shows. Doesn’t look bad in person. Also, it’s listed as a for sale by owner. Interesting that financing is available.

I used to have an e46 BMW, and those folks on the bmw boards LOVE this kind of stuff. They had a whole thread of like 1000 pages dedicated to making fun of other people’s Bimmers for sale. The attitudes on that site got tiring. It was a great car, but the online community support left a lot to be desired.

Really???
Gotta chuckle about that rear spoiler monstrosity...Is it really functional on this car? Might be if it was 500 HP and on a race track. 
Funny how there's no mention of the car's mileage in the C.L. ad.
