If I had a gun to my head and had to get a kit, I'd get that one.

I personaly am going to keep my car stock. I use my car for auto-xing and in the class I compete in I can't have a kit. Plus they add extra weight, attract thieves, get damaged easier, insurance doesn't cover it unless its full coverage insurance, sometimes they look tacky, something extra to paint. I think that is enough stuff to mention about why I don't get a kit.

i love kits actually... though my priority is performance. I'm workin on a kit right now, actually.

true, they will attract thieves or unwanted attention from cops and other people, but it sets the car apart from others. doing a cf lip for looks... please get off the jdm boat! just like hoods, wings, etc... just for looks, NO! The reason why I got a kit and its fiberglass, is cuz its lighter than stock and cuz i need a new bumper anyways... plus i want it to look cool and different. If it is a tasteful kit, then I like. It also helps with aerodynamics... which is why many race companies use front lips and even full replacement bumpers.

I got a body kit cuz 1. I need new front and rear bumpers. 2. better performance, light weight and aerodynamic. 3. cuz i like how it looks.

So there you go.

First of all most people get cf hoods because of all 3 reasons if not at least 2, second of all most people are on the jdm boat because most of the parts are lightweight and are what the car should have came with before americans ruined it. If you like bodykits then go for it. I use to like bodykits but the more i looked at it, it made me sick to see these huge things on small cars, plus I would rather see a stock looking car beat me than some riced up looken car.
