I think there are a few people in Germany that supply kits but in the UK it's not a popular thing to do so no one has bothered to develop such a thing. Do a search and you'll find the germany company names thumbsup As for the exhaust well the same thing is true. Unless you went and got a bespoke back box made up you will have to import one. Why do you want to do this stuff anyway? :blink:

I agree the car does look great standard. I was just wondering about the body kit more for a spoiler than anything else. The exhaust question was only because i have seen a picture somewhere of a vx220 with a double twin exhaust and it look awesome.

The MS design one does have a double twin-exhaust, I suspect that is what you are looking for..

Standard car looks better than any normal cars on the road. It is simple beauty!

This is NOT 'Pimp my Ride' poof

thank goodness can you imagine the comedy moment of westwood getting in one of these?

Mind you an interior retrim by Charisma would be nice,

so long as i choose the colours and get to oversee the project.

I am sure i can do a westwood impression

There is only one production bodykits I can think of by MS Design. There are a few styling bits also produced by Steinmetz.

- >MS Design kit< (pic shows the spoiler and exhaust). I might have found some >UK Suppliers<?

- >Steinmetz< and their >UK importer<.

Try searching for kits for the Opel Speedster as the Germans are far more into bodykits than UK owners.

If you are looking for spoilers then it starts with the VXT spoiler from Vauxhall, I'd then have a look at the >TMS wing< as it's handy enough. If you don't mind importing then >Moto Concept< have loads of aero stuff.

I think minime has a Lotus spoiler, but I forget the details.

Edit: I guess if you want the MS-Design exhaust then you'll have to work out how you want to get rid of the hole that's left where the original exhaust used to exit. Probably cheaper to fill it in and paint it rather than get the whole bodykit thing.

Regal have a one-off car that I think has a version of the MS Design kit on. I think the Race Car also does the same.

They have to be 22" chrome spinners though :rolleyes:

Regarding the exhausts, MS Design have two seperate twin exhausts, one at either side of the car, unless you are thinking Pagani Zonda stylee with the cluster of 4 together, see >>Touch Me<<

Both of which would require massively oversized testicles to butcher the clam :tt:

I agree with most of the replies here.. Why bother to ruin a beautiful, clean shape that looks far better standard? (maybe some of the TMS carbon bits tho) Reminds me of an old VW Golf advert. It shows loads of 'bazzed up' Golfs. its final message says "Some things are best left untouched" (or similar) Med.

I agree too, VX doesn't need anything 'stuck' on, it looks simply awesome as standard, IMHO!! :)

Well this is my effort: :D

Seriously though, If your main intention was to add on bolt on big bumpers and skirts etc, then there are a lot of other cars that would be better for that sort of thing. With it just being two main clams, there isn't much you can really 'bolt on'
