Planning to get a bodykit, What do you guys think?

Also planning to shave and fill in the holes where to Toyota sign is and the Solara sign is.

Tell me what do you guys think.

Thanks

The reason why I'm getting the kit is someone hit and run run car at school. Crack my front bumper on knocked off my front spoilers.
So get the full bodykit is cheaper than fixing it with stock parts.

mmmm every once and a while someone will go looking, and that horrid excuse for a body kit will come up. At first glance, its not half bad but just look at it for a good 5 mins, think of what you'll be doing to a beautiful car, and 9 times out of 10 you'll change your mind instantaneously.

EDIT:

its not cheaper to buy the body kit... i had to replace the front bumper of my car this winter, its like less than $200 because all it is is a piece of plastic. its not even technically a bumper, its a "bumper cover". They are cheap from toyota, and even cheaper aftermarket. All that needs to be done is some paint... and if you buy that monstrosity of a body kit, you'll have to have not only the front bumper, but the rear AND side skirts painted to match. Believe me it will turn out to be QUITE the expensive job. Your better off going stock, especially if you plan on keeping the car for a long time, as your appreciation for cars grows, you'll realize how important it is to keep some things (like the body of the car) more or less "stock". Upgrading rims, tires, lights, stereo, etc... its all reversible. Doing that to your car would ruin it.

Well, that's my opinion at least.

To each his own, but that kit is Definitely not my taste. I dont think it makes sense to give a camry the "evo" look.

The regular sport kit kicks ass....nothing looks better IMO

Yeah...You have folks here that say "just get what you want...its your car" but you did ask for our opinions.
You don't have any insurance to cover that man? I couldn't imagine going from the OEM sport kit to that piece of sh!t body kit. GL!

I don't know guys, I kinda like it. Looks outdoorsy. Oh wait, that's not it. It reminds me of a turtle. That's what it is, I like turtles, they're outdoorsy. The kit is just terrible. Like Gangis said, EEWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
