One may or may not like it, but it's getting press.

Nothing like fake side exit exhaust. How ridiculous.

Sorry, but my $.02 on this one is.....a hideous body kit on a new mustang. Most of the kits out there for the 05s are "over done." Appealing to the youth of today. I can see it now at the next NOPI nationals...civics, integras, and 05 mustangs with extensive body kits.

fake exhaust is just plain stupid..the overall appearance of the car is ok IMO, but that has to go or have a functional one, which is not likely

"Side-Pipes!"

Now all we need is a dude with a mullet driving!

Not my cup-of-tea. I prefer the stock styling. But to each his own. If you like it, go for it.

It's hideous and cheesy, but that's just my opinion.

I don't understand who would buy this kit from Roanele when Blow by Racing sells the same kit for half the price. Both companies use the kit designed and made by Kaenan. Also, BBR is close to having a working side exhaust kit.

Where is this elusive BBR car we've been hearing soo much about. I checked the website and there is nothing there. I think the kit has potential.

I received an email from them with a front 7/8 angle picture. I also spoke with Chris at BBR, and he told me that the kit would be available to ship by the end of this week.

Give Chris a call. He's a nice guy and definitely cares about keeping the Mustang "pure".

Pictures of the BBR car would be redundant, anyway, because the kit that Ronaele is showing is the same Kaenan body kit that BBR will be selling. Chris assures me that they are close to having a real working side exhaust kit, and an optional back end that would cover the rear exhaust holes.
