Actually mate, there are very few ones available any good, most are of poor quality when you see them "in the flesh", I have an estate, and fancied something in the way of a body kit too, but I found only an IRMSCHER kit and one other any real cop.
be prepared for silly prices for irmscher kits, and high prices for any other decent kit, I was quoted £640 for a "quasar2 kit, but when i looked at it, found it was thin GRP and not well fitting either.
Just be careful what you buy.

More than likely than not, built to a price, not a quality! Thumbs Up!

- nothing takes your fancy, huh?

There's little enough around anyway!
Apart from some of the stuff from Poland (quality unknown as already mentioned) the increasingly rare Irmscher and perhaps rarer Steinmetz, it's make it up as you go along as far as I can see.
I lurked eBay for 3 years looking for my Irmscher.
Not very much (compared to other cars) available for the 'meega............. Sad

I guess the migs weren't built with that in mind, and the lack of body kits and the like seems to echo that sentiment. Catch 22 though, because if there was more choice then more owners may consider it, creating more demand, etc
