i warn you now DO NOT GET A VIS KIT.... and i know from experince...my kit was hard as hell to put on.....the fiberglass chips and cracks......and its not a good kit...just letting you know so you dont make the same mistake i did.....oooh and i had to wait a month to get it while my car sat in the shop....and they are a bunch of ********....my jdm lights fog light lense cracked and they told me to go f@#k myself.......... i boycott them... boo to VIS boo i say

i think a nice lip and side skirts would look sweet go with that but do what you will its your car...just dont get vis find another company

that would look sweet ...no problem just trying to keep everyone else the headache that VIS can cause....the shopp i bought mine from has 4 kits sitting there that are either cracked or cant even be fabricated to fit right....and vis told them to pay to ship them all back and pay a restocking fee....which is total BS considering it was their kits that are fugged up....and the shop that did my kit now refuses to do anymore kits just because of the headache it and time it took for them to get mine done

ooh yeah for the mugen lip try out http://www.kingmotorsports.com to check price and what they look like

I recently bout a CF hood, roadster fenders and the omega bumper from VIS. Everything fits really well and is pretty thick quality wise. The sales person was an ******* but I did get my stuff in one day. I drove down from san jose to Monterey park to pick it up!!!!!!!!!

vis any lip kits are fine...but chances are you will want to change it after everyone has it...lips are cheaper and easier to deal with...get a mugen or oem lip

ahh calm down....any shop that sells fiberglass body kits are bound to have bad stuff now and then...Its just the nature of having a spray molded fiberglass kit, its not just ViS... U might end up getting a jacked up kit at another place.if u get buy a fiberglass kit, you take a gamble on it unless you spend sum real $$ to get a high quality(expensive) hand laid fiberglass part(like the stuff mugen makes).. my old car was sponsored by ViS and i had two different body kits from them and they both fitted great and had no flaws...

They're selling Type R lips and Mugen lips for your car that are made of a lightweight plastic substance, much like OEM for $99 on here. I'd say go with that.
