They drive around forever with mixmatched kits are are still only primered (NOT EVEN PAINTED), altezza's and exhausts that sound like weedeaters, and then they try and race me. I'm not saying my car is the shit, but at least I'm working on it and getting input from people
I take it you work in a casino around here? That fiberglass bumper is going to be destroyed in a matter of no time being as low as you are. Fiberglass will chip and shit when things like rocks hit them. Like I said before, I'd definately go w/ the OEM lip kit. Good luck with it

I think it alot better than the BWI, escpecially the sides, but that's just my opinion, maybe b/c I see that kit around here more where I live.

I can only say that because I am born and raised here

Sorry but I gotta say then why the hell don't ya put the car back to stock. No fun having a fancy car if you can't drive it without tearing it into pieces. I live in the hills and hence I am thinking of raising my car to get more ground clearance. Its function over form, sure my car has a huge gap in the wheel well but its my mode of transportation and not my sit in a gravel lot and gather dust item.

So if you are concerned about losing functionality I would say get rid of the crap and put it back to stock.

Okay well I gotta say this, ..... stock is boring. Yeah of course I'm worried about messing it up b/c of so much money spent, but I just have to be careful, don't I. I'm not gonna let the place I work at make me have a stock car. All I was doing was saying I'm concerned b/c I don't know exactly how low this front is gonna be sitting on my car, ya know. :thinking:

Yeah I work at the Beau. I like the lip kit, but I will see how the kit goes. So much money and effort will be put in this kit, so I guess I'm just gonna have to be careful.
