People still put body kits on their rides?

I can see maybe a subtle one, but not one of those wide *** body kits.

Are you even being serious, or just trolling?

I had one on an 02 lancer and loved the way it looked. It was fiberglass and I live in Ma - never had any problems. Fiberglass is the way to go. It can be damaged, but at the same time it can be fixed. Urethane if damaged then it's done for.

quick pic -

And imo they can look good if it's subtle. If you get a big *** bodykit and don't color match it in some way, then that is supahghey.

i bought my body kit for my 91 eagle talon (which is an eclipse. lol) from andysautosport.com ..... they have picks of what it should look like on your car and they are pretty decently priced. i got mine on sale for 499 and it cost a couple hundred to have it shipped from cali to iowa but it was worth it. the body kit in my avatar is not the one i got from them.... fyi

Sure do I still have to order the rear piece to complete the set and order the fog lights and have them installed "yes the factory ones"

Please. No bodykits.
95% of them are junk.

Don't listen to anyone that says not to get fiberglass. It may not flex like poly, but it's relatively easy to fix.

A friend of mine runs around with the owners of Aerotrends.com. If you must, check them out.

If you FG. If you don't, you have to pay money. Not to mention getting it repainted.

I'd much rather get something more flexible...

IMO, leave body kits to track cars. Honestly.

I don't believe in spoilers (other than stock ones.) nor body kits. Specifically not under glow...

They're unnecessary.

Spoilers and Body kits do increase aerodynamics if designed right and put in a proper application... but most of the time it doesn't. Especially on cars like Civics and Eclipses... it ends up just looking like *******.

here is my 92 cavalier. i really wish i had never wasted money on a body kit. (will never happen again)

here is my 04 cavalier. it has the ls sport package on it so i guess you can say that adds a lip kit? thats the most i'll ever consider on my car.
