Default urethane body kit

jus bought a full body kit from erebuni its all polyurethane, problem is most urethane body kits are basically same size as the stock bumpers only maybe an inch longer, planning to throw on 17 inch rims wit low profile tires as well, i dont want it to look like a 4 by 4 truck lol and dont want to deal with the time and money of dropping it, going on a 92 civic lx, does anyine have any idea if it will look 2 high of ground??

Body kits tend to emphasize wheel gap so you will eventually want to lower it. It won't look complete at OEM spring height. Some good quality lowering springs can be purchased for less than $200.
