is this normal after you installed bodykit?

every since I put on the bodykit
alot of times when a car passes by me (especially civic, accord, integra, nothing against honda) they would rev up their engine to make that loud azz sound in the muffler.
now is this normal? today, I even had a guy rev at me when there are like 5 cars in front of us at a right light. I mean....why?

people think any kind of mods=race. i wish i did more mods to my car because nobody races me. id love to smoke ricers but they dont even notice me at stoplights.
on my old car i had chrome rims and everyone wanted to race me.

The other day I was going pick up some lunch and stopped on the right lane of a two lane left turn lane. This Hundai Tiburon V6 with two guys rolled up next to me and while we were waiting for the left turn light, I look over and they were starring at me and was rolling their car back (revving a little bit, just want me to know they have a stickshift I guess) I didn't think too much, I made the left turn when the light turn green, and they made a U-turn.
Yes, it is pretty strange how people react to a car with a body kit.

Yup that is normal......even you when get a new exhaust, like when you get a aftermarket muffler with a tip larger than stock...i noticed people taking off like crazy when i pass them and they see my exhaust. This one guy in a riced out 4 door Civic wanted to play, he like rev his car like he da man....i was like i need to go to work....he looked at me all weird and i turned. hehe
got my kit put on last week and it seems at every other stoplight..people are revving or glaring at me. I'm starting to develop stoplight anxiety. maybe I should tint my windows a little darker so they can't look at me. hehehe

I don't have a kit but I did get harrassed a little last night. First was from a neon that had a big sticker on the back window that said "was that a neon"
he punched it next to me when there was a car two feet in front of me. I followed him for a while, he would rev and punch it in heavy traffic then as soon as the lanes opened up on down the road he quickly turned off.
This happened again from a civic with cut springs, gaytezzas, and a huge wing (still in traffic.) It was an automatic and again as soon as the opprotunity was available for a clean run he quickly turned off. I was so ****ed that I had to drive around for a while looking for some satisfaction. The only thing I found was a GS five speed with exhaust (not even close) and a red grand prix GTX (at least that was the badges on his car) with ugly wheels, he was behind me when me and the eclipse started to run but was not keeping up.
Body kits will get you noticed though. Last weekend a guy in the latest prelude with a bodykit (5-speed with cat-back and intake) was with his girl and looked over and snickered at the big family car (my maxima,) well at the next two lights the big family car showed him and his girl it's tailights despite his high reving and very loud overrated v-tec, this was followed with a V8 Mark VIII, and a turbo civic.
You really don't need a bodykit to get attention for a race, all you need is blue headlights which is the exact reason I have them
