Holy hell thats a big wing. Can your car fly?

and stock 97- 99 body kit is the best body kit. but I guess its not JDm 2f2f for you so then probably the bc2.

who says you have to get a new front? why not get a splitter or lip and the body shop touch up your front?

later

I'd go with some time of aftermarket sides, change your rims, drop it like it's hot. As far as body kits goes, if you can make it looks good (which most people can't) go for it.

Boostin since Aug 03.

nothing like driving with the windows down and the music low: i love hearing the turbo spool, swwwhhhttt!!!!

i wish they would stop making the bc2 kit. that way it stays more popular. and not a blitz.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

take off the god damn wing.
Thank you.

and that C-West front is nifty. I kinda like the Xtreme GT one too, just take out that big center fin and it'll be nice and clean, not to mention you would be the only person runnin it.

Combat front and side skirts seems the most subtle to me next to oem. and the old aerogear rear that Degree has is nice. Use those 3 & loose the wing.

I would say OEM kit with a nice 2 inch drop on some 18's just looks sexy as hell.

Hey man, I garuntee you, if you just take off your wing. Stand back and just look at it with no wing, keep the rims, get some stock skirts and lower it. It will look so sexy, badass, cool you wont need to drop any money for no damn body kits. Now if you dont like that than there's only one body kit that exists to me and that's the Buddy Club 2. If you really want the Cwest kit isnt to bad and is different.


She's a good car. But it's time for me to move on. I'll miss her more than anything but my next car will have the same heart with the same passionate drivers. I hope things workout best for the both of us.
