Some kits look clean and ride the lines of the car. I personally have been through several kits my self trying to get the best look. From a buddyclub I to a R33 to a R34 kit to just a simple add-on lip kit now. I prefer overall the lip kit. Its simple, made to follow the oem lines, you keep your oem bumpers and a lot cheaper in the long run. Another thing is the type of product its made of. There is fiberglass, polyurethane and abs. If you can, get what ever you choose in polyurethane. Well worth the extra $$$$. Thats my opinion. (in reply to crazy) Post #: 19
