Question 3 door/rs 500
Keep thinking of putting 500 top/lower spoiler and a rs 500 front bumper as it looks 100% better then the standard 3 door one!

But if i fit these it will take the 3 door ident away from her!

Do you think that 3 doors should be kept as a 3 door and a 500 as a 500?

I think the 500 front bumper looks better.

The problem with fitting a 500 kit is that people never give the car credit for being a nice car ( thats if it is ) they will always check to see if its a real 500 and if it isnt then they just snub it and walk away chuffed with themself for spotting its not a real 500

Leave a 3 door as is and let people admire the car rather than snub it

Your old car does look superb , but i bet people will still look at it and stick there nose in the air and say " but its not a real 500" even tho its looks stunning

I put replica RS500 rear spoilers on as I liked them, so rather than make a 500 replica I had them both sprayed in gloss black like the car (not matt bottom and matt upper lip) so people will know I`m not trying to replicate, just enhance
