r34/r33 body kit? and what body kit do you have

so should i go with r34 or r33 bod kit? IMO, the r34 keeps it simple and clean and the r33 seems a little too busy.

r34- http://www.ilovebodykits.com/product...Body_Kits.html


1. what are your opinions? should i go with neither?

2. what body kits do you guys and why do you love/hate it?

R34 front bumper looks ridiculous, it's crazy that it made it out of the design phase.

Get a stillen lip kit, It looks the best (IMO of course).

I like the sarona kit personally. I personally think the fenders and hood pictured are a bit much and over the top, but the body kit itself has great lines.

though the front and sides mixed with...

...the r34 rear bumper is perfect for my style.

just my 2 cents

I really enjoy that rear bumper. Definitely need dual exhaust to pull it off.

However the front is all Pontiac'd. no thanks in the slightest.

Do a lip kit. The problem with the R34 kit, as i found out when I went to put my car back to stock, is that for starters, the fitment is crap, need way too much filler. Second, a stock exhaust, or greddy exhaust tip sticks out the back of the car about 4.5 inches.

And, to fit the kit, you lose crash protection, the foam doesnt fit under the kit

Don't do it. Ultimately it's your time and money so if you're comfortable with your car looking like a R34 or R33 rice maxima. By all means - do it.

Do you have any pictures of your 4th gen with the kit on it?
