Eclat with bodykit

Post by bmjb99 »

Apologies if it has cropped up before, but does anyone know the story behind this - aftermarket body kit, factory special or some bloke in a shed?

(No, I’m not interested in buying it)

Looks like it's being auctioned at the NEC during the Show. Be interesting if we can get a closer look.
I saw the car a couple of years back at Lotusbits. Looked pretty well executed if I recall, but not to my taste.

You would say that 😉

But it's the wrong shape. And not just the body kit
