lol, I'm not saying rims are bad or anything (I wish I had a new set, but its not worth the $$$ for me since I'll be getting rid of the car soon), its just that if you have the extra 5 grand for rims, body kit, paint, etc. You might as well get a newer, better car to start off with, and skip they body kit. Body kits almost always end up looking bad, and they can kill resale.


and don't say 5 grand is way to high, because if you want it done right it will probably cost you that much, unless you have connections. Body work is very VERY expensive.



I don't want to sound like an ass, but, especially when you are just starting out, I think that its more important to have a car you can afford to sell than a project. Just my opinion.





or you could use that extra money to pick up a CBR600f4i.... just saying

lol man we're hard on drift =( sorrry dude lol idk i dont like body kits i would buy a front lip and be done wit it.. one thing they are farely simple to put on, dont cost as much, and doesnt change the look of the car much..i think u should jus put a lil more money into the car that way u have a decent car that will get you threw college and stuff.. dont get a car wit like 180k on it and then go and put all of this work into it.. its not worth it it really isnt cuz if u ever decide to sell it.. well your still only gunna get the stock price out of it.. even wit a motor swap you might get like $500 more.. cuz if u chek on autotraders the hatches and stuff wit b18's that are priced at like $6000 dont sell and they end up lowering the price and it sells..

aint gonna sell it till it's worth like $5

[dre5491]

you'll have to put atleast $10,000 or $15,000 into it.. thats the thing.. if u start working on it dont sell it cuz you will never ever get the money back that u put into it..if your lucky you'll get about half of it back..atleast thats how it works aboutt 85ish% of the time

Actually, if you really want a body kit, I'd go for the Wings West Racing kit. It's cheap and subtle, but looks good. And it's urethane and on Andy's Auto Sport (since you seem to like them). Either that or the WW G5 kit.

I ilike the 1st one as well
