To HST or not?

Thinking of adding an HST kit (full kit inc mufflers) to my TDV8

Does retro fitting have a negative impact on resale values?
Anyone done the same?
Anyone recommend where to go in the South East?

Chris mc has had the kit fitted to his V6 and looks superb, but he his trying to sell it at the moment and seems that he his having trouble selling it which i'm surprised at because its an excellent example.

I'm also interested in putting the HST kit on my V6.

When I looked at doing it I'm sure the bodyshop said there are extra fixings required Andy Thumbs Up

The HST kit is a bit like marmite... I think it makes the care look nicer BUT the look is very alloy specific.. the supersports seam to do the job the best imho... otherwise they can look "overbodied" RRS gone

I think I might play around with photoshop when I get some spare time - see if my alloys would suit it. Worst comes to worst, I have been offered some 22" Supersports - but they need a refurb.

I was looking at potentially buying an old bumper off eBay to get sprayed up instead of having to drop my car off at the spray shop for a few days when I get it colour coded RRS HSE TDV6 Autobiography

In fairness I love a bodykit! Not had an RRS (of my own) without one for years (2008 I think). Painted and fitted properly it will only add value. However...... it may not add the value that you spend on buying and fitting it, therefore enjoy it!
