2008 Smart ForTwo Cabrio wide-body kit by Koenigseder

While Japanese kei-kars as well as Korean Daewoo Matiz and its sibling Chevrolet Spark do not look like ideal objects for exterior tuning, the German Smart ForTwo is all about style.

The Austrian tuner Königseder found this to be a good enough excuse for introducing its own appearance kit for the tiny city car.

The new wide-body kit was employed to provide additional living space to the set of new 17-inch wheels, which -together with new Eibach sport springs- provide the Smart ForTwo with better handling. To make it look more, err, organic, guys from Konigseder also equipped the car with a pair of side skirts, restyled front bumper and extra air vents in the rear wheel arches.

Thankfully, the vehicle’s engine remains untouched.

The flowery paint job, although incredibly cute, looks a little bit incongruent with the new -too aggressive- body kit but is tolerable, all right.
