You'd never catch me being a chav at my age.... oh wait...










I would have a body kit if I had the cash. I like the front of that kit, and the rear, but not sure of the side skirts. I think the front could go on its own with standard F, but the rear look like it bulges out too mjuch so would need the sides to balance it out. Would like to see and f with JUST the front bumper, without the silly splitter



I'd sell my kidney for this though..

It would be interesting to see a mock up with just the front and rear bumpers on, I am not clever enough to do it and Rob is not around to help, although his passion is the Range Rover Vogue or new sports B)
Which kit has Rough Luck got on ? I remember seeing it at Marks :-?

You are adding weight and possibly drag. The only body kit I have ever put on a car is a front spoiler, this is a must for the F, a rather hurriedly designed car .. An F modded like this would probably lose value, it's a no nonsense sports car, not the car of choice for bad gangstas to bling up.
Tech bit. the Cd of a car is just that, a co effecient , something you multiply by . a dimensionless number. Tto get the drag force your engine has to overcome you multiply Cd by cross sectional area. I have seen body kits that claim to reduce Cd, but when you multiply the lowered Cd by the increased area hanging out in the wind you find the car has more drag, so slower and thirstier.
So short answer, no.
