just looked at the pics, and i have to say i don't usually like body kits, but i like that one. it gives mass to the rear end, and the rocker panels also are more weighty, which works much better. the front is tough, aggressive and highly functional. it provides cooling vents and pulls the nose down. i think it's the best kit i've seen for an early c4.

it definitely makes a statement. you will turn heads with this one. it ain't wimpy.

that being said, i don't think i'd wear it and have no idea who makes it. i can tell you the car is not in the u.s.-maybe u.k..

I really like the looks of that kit! I don't quite like the point on the nose (too C3ish) but I like the overall look...

I could appreciate the fine craftmanship but......Naw!
I like the wheels though.

I think the front looks similar to the old Fiero. I prefer the Greenwood Motorsports body kits.

there was also a straight on pic of the front that was not included. in fact, i went on the site a second time and couldn't find it. but anyway, if you could see the front straight on--it is strong with rad and brake vents and a spoiler that has to help high speed runs. the front pic was my favorite.

the kid across the way suggested that it would look better in black, and i have to agree. weighty and menacing.
