Default Techart body kit

On vaca in Montreal and saw this interesting 996 with Techart body kit. Not usually a big fan of body kits, but this actually looked really nice in person...maybe just a little too low lookinig in back, but otherwise this really dressed up the car.

I like it except for the back bumper, it's a little to busy back there. But as for the rest I think it looks pretty good!

The rear bumpers look too flashy to be on a Porsche.. maybe more suited for the likes of a Lamborghini

Another car with funky suspension. Why do so many 996's seem to suffer from this situation? How do people end up with a 2.5" fender gap in the front, and 1.5" gap in the rear? It really throws off the appearance of the entire car, regardless of whatever else they do to the exterior.

That rear end looks like something out of a cheap sci fi movie.

Looks like a honda civic with an ebay kit. Cars with msrp over 20K shouldn't have chickenwire in the bumpers. Not to mention that literally none of the lines work.
