The only body kits that fit properly are the real ones, and even then they can be off a little bit.

Body kit is fast and furious. RICER!!

Lip kit is more subtle and cleaner

lip kit all the way. They are much cheaper and they also look much better

Most bodykits look too rice and they dont fir properly, also they are pretty expensive.

Try too fast motors

ya dont rice it out but if u think it will be cool and people will be looking at as your going down the street its not going to be cuz they like it, its cuz they waiting for you to drive by so they can laugh at it. so i would go with a lip kit looks better and cleaner.

Lip kit for sure. Just look around and get what catches your eye and use that for inspiration.

i dunno but last time i checked the whole point in personalizing a car is to make it personalized. something that you like and you shouldent really care what others think.
everyone was down with full kits then it went. now it's all about the lips i understand that, i like that,
but do you. dont get caught in a coon cage.
