Your friend is pretty smart ;-)
I don't know much about the body stuff (I'm more about the go than the show) but what's up with that thing on the windshield?
Welcome to the site :cheers

Welcome!
The information on this site is second to none, use the search and you're bound to find answers to your questions.
As a side note, most of us here don't care much for body kits, etc... If it works for you, thats all that matters; But I would stick to under-hood pics if you want to preserve your dignity. ;)

Welcome. Now lose the wing, get it painted, and make it look clean. Kits are ok as long as it's clean. I'd much rather see a kit than stickers everywhere

well the good thing with the wing its sooooo damn high. It dosent block the view.
Welcome trading in a honda for a Eclipse is a plus. making that Eclipse look like the batmobile is a minus.
Ya this site is not about the kits. But if you ever want to make it fast and CLEAN LOOKING. You are in the right place.
answer this for me
why such a big spoiler. You know our cars are FWD. How will having a 747 wing help ya. More down force in the back helps the front how....

I think I was born with an "itch" for big wings? It sounds funny I know, But my car sits in garage bay #2 and in garage bay #1 sits my Dad's Plymouth Superbird that he has had since it was BRAND NEW! and that wing is HUGE....So I think I got it from seeing that car all the time growing up. Makes sense to me, sorry guys for all the haterz....Get over it, I'm the one that has to drive it everyday....So you can keep laughing and I'll enjoy driving it...haha

Heh. I just noticed that motivator is using a picture taken in Scottsdale. :P
And to the OP, you're always going to catch hell for the kit, doors, and wing, but so long as you like it and keep your cool, you've got nothing to worry about.
Now let's see pics of this Superbird.
