lip kits are less expensive, look better and are more durable IMO. (as long as you get a good urethaneone).

there are a few full body kits that do look good, but I dont find them very practical for every day driving, especially when the car is also lowered.

dito to everything he said!

about ever body kit is fiberglass, which means if you slightly BUMP a curb or something flips up in the road like some road debri and hits the fiberglass parts and they will do one of 2 things.... bust into chunks or bust some cracks into them. definatly NOT WORTH IT. because if ya crack it then ya gotta fill, body work, and then paint.

buy a nice lip kit thats urethane and worst thing ive seen is paint scratched off from draging it along a curb.


im going to eventualy get a lip kit for front and rear for my civic. i just have other things to buy right now.

the lip kits are nice, but if you find a body kit that is simple and not flashy it can look really good. even if you're into the flashy bodykits, i know that all wings west body kits are urethane, and some of them look pretty good. here is the one i want to get. imo it looks good and its cheap, but its urethane.
