Do not want. The car looks fat as is, but the addition of side skirts, a drop, lip, and whatever else makes it look like a beached whale.

Wow!...and not in a good way.

That is by far the worst looking Sonata I've ever seen.

Why do people buy entry level cars and do stupid stuff like this to them???

The BBS's are worth...what?....1/3 of the price of the actual car??? What's the point?....Save your money and buy a better car.

Suzuki Kizashi IMO is better, available awd, too bad the weight advantage on the FWD makes it the car of choice. This Sonata though for one, is too low, secondly its side skirts make the car look too tall and the wheels look small.

I'm sorry but its maybe one of the few exceptions where BBS LMs do not equal to success.
The giant front fender+ overhang+fish lines+ fake CLS look do not work. I initially liked the design but upon inspecting in person its really poor and trying to hard.

Not feeling it! The car looks like an alien spaceship from Star Trek or a really bad CGI movie on the Sci-Fi Network.....just saying.
