:firing2: Probably get shot down in flames for this , sorry Pete ,

Without a closer inspection as to quality , i actually think they have been designed along the right lines , altho our Massers have adequate braking , and at best thats its exactly what it is adequate for general driving, continual hard braking does create brake fade especially on track , or here in roundabout city MK , those vents in the Front Bumper easily vented to the front discs and the Side skirt vents also lend themselves for directional air flow to the rear discs ,

Had they been available 3 years ago when i was doing the 4200 then i probably would have gone for them , and compromised purity purely on a cost basis , and they do add a certain amount of aggressivness which was what i was after at the time hence i went for the GS front and rear , but i agree they do look a little Supra esque , perhaps a few more design tweaks could make them more befitting the Maserati

regards loz

Hum, anything aftermarket is a bad idea and this is not that bad, the fronts ok, its a little fiddly, too many angles but the rear, too much.

The coupe is very smooth and flowing and simple in its shape, adding too many new lines confuses the shape.

I like the wheels though

Just my 2 peneth worth!

I think it looks good (no, really!). However I wouldn't go for it as unless they show real pictures of the kit, I don't trust the sales blurb. And the blurb makes it clear that it needs a 'reputable' bodyshop to make it look right (they will have to drill holes etc. to get things to fit right - so this indicates to me that it is more fiddly than they make out and why I would want to see actual pictures of it fitted (and perhaps also some intermediate steps showing the fitting process). Too much of a risk me thinks.

I had a little play....suits this rear better IMHO

It looks better because the arc of the lights is simulated in the bumper recesses....well, if tweaked to match better, that would not look half bad.

I'm with safrane, not for me. Bit like those Kahn Range Rovers and straying towards 25th anniversary Lambo. Then, what would I know, I prefer the Coupe over the GS :)

Not too bad overall, conaeor improved the rear look, natch ;)

Sure my 3200 AC already has brake ducts up front, does the 4200 or GS retain this (option) ?

No, they got rid of them on the 4200 and GS, cost cutting Mike Roberts told me, and if you look at the GS you can see it. My old 32 was leather everywhere, now my GS is leather faced with matching PVC for the less noticeable parts. It does not bother me as the money has been spent where it counts.....in the engineering.
