ASI reveals new bodykit for Bentley drop top








Japanese tuners Accuracy.Spirit.Imagination (ASI) have revealed a new kit for the Bentley Continental GTC drop top. ASI's exclusive work with Bentleys has given the Japanese company a well-earned reputation amongst other tuners, and their latest kit gives the British-built Bentley Continental GTC a fresh appeal.

Stylistically, the body kit is similar to the theme they created for the four-door Bentley Flying Spur.

The package comprises a full bodykit with a front bumper spoiler, side skirts, and a rear bumper with a carbon-fiber lip, ASI's latest bodykit is a little more reserved than some of its other creations, such as the treatment given the Continental GT sister car, but still gives the Bentley a much sportier look.

ASI also fits LED daytime running lights and a subtle boot spoiler made from carbon fiber to give the car some visual flair, as well as a set of 22-inch alloys, shod with 265/30 tires on the front wheels and 295/25 at the back.

While the bodykit gives the Bentley Continental GTC a smoother, more aggressive look without being too over the top, if you're looking for something a little more comprehensive than just a bodykit ASI can crank your Bentley's power output up to 800hp (597kW) - for a staggering $800,000.

Re: ASI reveals new bodykit for Bentley drop top

800hp for $800,000 -- I wonder how popular it will be?

The front is not too bad ....the rear is so wrong for a Bentley.

Good to see you posting again!

I won't say how hideous I think this car is, oops wait I guess I said it anyway.

Re: ASI reveals new bodykit for Bentley drop top

You know I was thinking, the only only hope for this droptop Bentley is if they do a Speed version. A Continental GTC Speed might do the trick IMO. The Speed variants of the sedan and coupe look much better, but they're still unaccetable, but must maybe the convertible (since I'm partial to droptops) could pass muster in "Speed" trim + facelift.

Re: ASI reveals new bodykit for Bentley drop top

Not from that angle it isn't. Looks good actually. It is the front of these Bentleys that I can't stand and for the convertible, the top up stance/profile is one of the ugliest I've seen. That is totally unaccetable for me with a convertible!
