Default That's Awfull

wow I have an idea lets take a great looking RCF and make it look as bad as we can. My eyes do hurt. I wonder what these after market companies are thinking when designing these rubbish additions.

I like the side profile on the AB Flug. The rest is overdone. If they just redid the air intakes on the front bumper it would be cool.

They all look worse then stock, that hood looks worse then a wrap.

Lets take a 70k car and make it look like a 10k civic.

I guess the wheels in the 1st pic look okay.

You mean let's take an $82k TVD carbon and make it look like a 10k civic!

I don't mind the lip on the gray car, everything else is way over the top for me.

i dont know what you guys are complaining about but i think this kit looks awesome! way better than rocket bunny BY FAR!! the front lip & side skirts are subtle & even the rear cf pieces look killer. i think this kit (minus hood) may have swayed my decision to buy an rc-f once my 3IS fsport lease is up. sign me up!!

I really like the Varis RC-F. The kit seems to flow really well with the car, the Abflug seems to be going for a very aggressive and angry look.

In my opinion, I think both cars look cool and unique - while it may probably upset some purists - keep in mind, the Japanese people love these kind of mods - they are subtle and outlandish, so they cover two sides if you want to look at it that way.

That said, you can't always expect what people like in their country to instantly translate well in other places.

Just my humble opinion
