Default Questions about a lip kit?

I'm thinking about getting one instead of a body kit. Is it common to get side skirts to your kit? And what do you think about a dark gray grill in my stock bumper. My car is white and it would go with my gunmetal rims.

if you get a lip kit...most people go with front and rear....i went with just front. and about the grille...personally i'd paint it to match the rest of the car. it looks a lot cleaner to have it the same color.

i would go with a front and back and keep the sides stock. i would paint the sides the same color as my car though.

^^ i with both of them..paint the stock sides when you paint your lip kit, and paint the grill...some times leaving them unpainted, or black looks really good to..but it all depends whats color scheem you have going on and if it matches

i want to do just about the same thing but only the front lip, and painted side skirts.

i thought about the rear lip BUT it wouldnt look good with my rear bumpers exaust cutout.


and for my front grill im gonna make a custom grill
just got my replacement grill today so will start hacken away at it tomorow and remolding it to more of the SI style... my only concern is what i should use as the grill material mesh. so far im thinking something like this stuff.

or maybe this stuff


i think i have enough of the first stuff left over from past grill i made for my old jimmy.

turned out looken alot beter than my crapy barbiq grill material i had on the truck.LMFAO
