Wow.. You got a BC kit and you're getting a JDM conversion. Well if I were you. Yes!, I would add the side skirts and rear bumper to the JDM conversion. Infact, I think I'd get the JDM conversion that comes with the BC front bumper too.. I thought it looked great on the net.. But anyways, yea that's my opinion....

Its up to you man, whatever you think looks good. Everybody on here is gonna voice different opinions, and its just gonna come down to whatever YOU want. I prefer the clean look over the Bodykit/wing/altezzas/etc. I like the JDM conversion and nothing else on the car. However, this is a message forum and everybody is entitled to their own opinion. So do what makes you happy man.

like I always say, OEM or JDM. Nothing else... Everythinge lse IMHO makes the car look Riced out. OEM or JDM will make it look very clean and nice, while still getting props...

Body kits are ugly . Sell the body kit for $10, save the $3-4000 that you would spend on the JDM conversion and put that money into your motor and/or into your suspension... WHERE IT BELONGS !!

but thats just me... do what makes you happy
