I say put the whole kit on and put on an air system.  Sounds like something a really smart person would do in your situation!

I think you can get a complete system for about $2400.00

I didn''t really think you would do air, just throwing it out there.  I am excited to see how this body kit looks on yours though.  I think it''s going to be hot!

rear bumper installed, ran into a bit of a problem, the hole for the exhaust is for single tip, and i have a dual tip muffler, so it''''s kinda rigged up right now, not sure if i want to get a new muffler, cut one tip off of mine or cut the bumper to fit

thanks slammed, how you like the two tone primer, haha, i ran out of the dark gray and had to switch to the light gray LOL, anyways, we will see on monday how it looks with the front bumper on, i am leaning towards keeping it, just gotta figure out what to do with the muffler tip problem, i really love the sound my car has right now, i hate to changed mufflers, or cut one tip of mine off, then again if i cut the bumper to fit my current tip, what if i decided to sell it or change my muffler later on, oh the choices!!

this is just a test fit playforfun, just trying to decide if i want to keep it or not, i will not be driving it with the kit on primered, if i decide to keep it, i''ll take it off and go to the booth with it and spray it, i just don''t wanna spray it until i know i am keeping it,

03sleeper- it is looking nice but you are right it dwarfs my 17ins. i found a nice set of 18''s with yokohomas on craigslist but the guy wants my jl and amp and 100 bucks which is not a bad deal but i hate to get rid of the system
