For me it would definitely be something that would change the rear bumper.
I would love to see some way of toning down the large expanse of "rump" especially on the lower part of the rear bumper.

I'm a graphic designer can explain a little about visual balance and using dark space to slim things. The 'big rump' on yours is basically a problem of visual balance. Standard A2s trick you into thinking they are less tall because the lower bumpers and sills are painted dark grey which optically lowers the visual silhouette of the car by making the 'body' seem slimmer and nearer the road than it actually is. The votex kit covers those standard body areas with skirts and air-dams, and in 99% of cases, the owner plumps for body coloured rather than matt grey paint. The kit generally certainly looks cool, but makes the car look a lot more 'roller-skate' like now that this optical illusion has been covered over, making the sides and rear taller and more 'flank' like. I'd bet a bit of matt grey colour coding on a Votex kit would do some serious work in making the kit more subtle and less in your face.
HiJust adding a quick Photochop to illustrate my point....

The anthracite kit and wheels look very cool on that silver A2! Thanks
Sure! - with and without anthracite rims...

You aren't sounding negative at all...
Fun to have this sort of discussion. It's nice we're at a point where people aren't quite so conservative in their modding tastes (price is a great leveller)
I've always thought that on a silver one, a black tailgate and bonnet swap would look good, if in conjunction with a black/opensky roof.
