Um.....NO. :shakehd: :shakehd: :shakehd:

Buy one of those and you had better watch you don’t suck up any small children or dogs into that front air intake.

If someone is going to that extent to create such a horrible looking kit, why couldn't they create some sort of front lip spoiler, or at least something more subtle. (ie: CharlesNguyen's TL conversion)

And don't the manufacturers know that people will be lowering their automobiles too...why make such a tall front bumper? If I only knew how to mold a kit....

ok i guess i got excited 2 just see a kit on a cl lol

I didn't pay ttention to the wheel gap and it does need a drop bad. But also, it needs a splitter w/in the front lip b/c that gap is tooo big.

Oh well still, not that bad

Too much goin on w/ the kit. A cl is a nice car that should have a nixe semi sporty kit not a ricer kit. Wheel gap is HUGE.

U're correct on that, any drop on the suspension & that spoiler would be used for a pooper scooper

not really..... CL is a luxo sport coupe, and it ain't no civic or integra. The best and clean custom kit was Charles' CL with the TL lips and skirt. Lowering, rims and little performance parts is as far as i would go. Body kit i would consider if they had OEM in the first place.

i think if it was lowered with 19" whels and a shorter front bumber, it wouldn't be half bad...

I don't have a picture of the back with me, but I was at that show this past weekend with that type s there, and the rear looked a lot better, i talked to the guy that owned it, the reason he didn't lower it was that if you see how low the front is already, if he lowered it a few inches, the front would be sittin on the ground. I personally don't like the front either, but I will post a picture of the rear when I get home. The rear was much more subtle and cleaner. I'm gonna contact that guy and see if he can custom design the rear for me.

if that big mouth was closed half-way and the sides of the front bumper wasnt so overdone, the kit would look decent.

i still think that the CL would be better served with the clip-on style kit that was adapted from the TL(my wallpaper)

I agree, but it probably can't be lowered much with that front. Jesus, Monica Lewinsky could fit in the front air opening.

i saw this CL at import eurasia in baltimore .. the kit didnt fit right, it looked like there was some glue invovled to make it fit better, the chicken wire looked bent and messed up .. and the lack of lowering really messed it up .. good idea but not executed well
