If you are talking about Toyota Racing Development, I know of them. IIRC, it's an in-house performance branch of Toyota, like their version of SVT, or AMG, or whatever(RUF? BMW's M series?). I respect what they do, most of the time. I love MR2's, I think they are sweet cars that looked pretty cool right off the showroom floor. If I didn't have such an affinity for the rotary engine, I probably would have owned one in my earlier days. I simply enjoy what is called "the sleeper factor", in my terminology. Instead of making it look fast, make it go fast. So I am already biased. I have seen certain body kits that I DO like, however (though I admit there are few). This is not one of them. As I stated before, this is merely my opinion. I see that I am in the minority, but I still think it looks tacky. I think maybe it's the fact that the MR2 is such a rounded, flowing shape, and that body kit is too angular, even boxy?
