Get the swap, then when you have a engine to back it up, you can get the body kit. If you get the kit people think you are just a ricer, if you can show them that you aren't then you win.

I would vote against the body kit, period. But, if you HAVE to get one, make sure it's in urethane, none of that fiberglass ****. Or, you could get a lip, and save yourself like 600 or so. But, get the swap, b16bs are the shiz.

I used to wanna get a body kit, and then there was a point where they didnt appeal to me at all, Id just get the swap, and then later on get the kit if you still want it... and if not, then you did a smart thing and saved your money.
