I'd say £25k for the kit is more the laughing point

A little bit of sick came up when i looked at that.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Tbh save up and buy a proper one

Who in their right mind would pay £26k for a ford probe with a body kit!!? You could probably lease a real R8 for a decent length of time for 26 grand!!

the cost is soo high because u need an actual car to mage moulds from! and then make actuall panels which i guess are fibre glass??

So you're spending £25 GRAND on a kit to put on a £1000 motor?
Wait and I'll get my checkbook.
