Lorinser Kits

What do you guys think of the lorinser DTM kit? I got a very good deal that i can't resist....but then..i see it as quite un-necessery

Details
DTM front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts, roof spoiler, dual exhaust...all for around $5000 usd.

What do you guys think?

Personally I think Lorinser kits all look the same in all classes, like the AMG kits. Since its quite distinctive, I think you'll get bored looking at the two big fog lamps and the mesh grille over a period of time. But then again, the price is pretty attractive here.
Are you going to get 3 bodykits afterall? Cause in your sig. you said you've Brabus kit (in process), Kleemann kit (in process). It might not be a bad idea if you can get 3 kits and change them every other 4 months!!! I'd prefer the Brabus kit. More classy. ONLY my $0.02!

I like the Lorinser kit - a little more on the loud side. The Brabus kit is more subtle. Depends on what look you want. But if you are going to keep the car for only 2 years, why spend the money for looks? Why would you not ship the car back with you? Is it not cost effective to do so?
