Default OPINIONS FROM EVERYONE

Alright winter is coming up and i'm taking my body kit off and i want to get a lip kit instaed. I'm debating whether to sell my body kit and use the money to get a lip kit, or just keep the body kit for the summer and the lip kit for the winter. What do you guys think?

This is my current body kit:

This is the lip kit i wnat to get:

I just dont want my lip kit to not be aggressive enough for my liking, but this is the most aggressive one i could find. It was a sh*t load of stuff to go through to get the body kit, get it painted, and install it. Opinions on which one i should do?

welll..this is a tuff one, you already have the kit..so i would say keep it and just put your stock bumpers on for the winter and dont have any kit on it, that would be a waste getting a lip kit for the winter..

or..IF you can get the money back, sell the kit and get the lip kit..but still take the lip kit off in the winter

you dont have to worry about your car looking good in the winter..its not car seasion

Even though I am not a big fan of body kits, I really do like that kit on your car. I agree with mill$ about just putting on the stock bumper for the winter. I mean he's right, winter isn't really car season. It sucks, I know...

hey flip. the BADDEST ek sedan i evar saw was a black one like yours (minus the stickerz and kit, of course) with nothing but a black Type R lip kit.

it was FREAKING AWESOME. i almost bought it but it had no cat and never passed emissions, so no sale for me. lol.

Welcome to the club, man...

I see where mill$ is coming from about already having the kit on and painted...

I know this isn't going to be helpful, but which do you like more: the stock body and possibly a lip kit, or your body kit? Sit down for an hour or so and just look at pictures of your car now, and if you have any pictures of it without the kit, look at those... compare them and decide what look you like better... it's what I did.

I say lip kit... but keep the body kit in case you ever decide you like it better lol
