I've seen that page and have been trying to find it for a while now. I've been thinking of "wide-bodying" my bird depending on how much it costs, especially after seeing this one...I wonder who's car this is anyway.

I'm not a fan of widebody kits, but for those of you that are, here's a couple pics that I found a while back.

Reminds me of the A-Team van.

the key to awide body is moderation that black one is just way to wide, but I do like that silver I think it's just because of how wide the rear tires are
