Default not sure what to go with

so i'm trying to find a body kit for my 96 accord where the front bumper will still give me quite a bit of clearance from the ground after i lower my car 2", i'm not too worried about the side skirts or the back bumper, and i've considered getting just a lip kit, but i want something a little more showy than a lip kit, but don't know how much money i'm willing to spend on a front bumper that'll give me still a fair bit, in between a lip kit and an body kit, cuz i know a front lip will give me enough ground clearance.........help? anybody? i'm thinking about 4 or inches, or more if possible

4" of ground clearance? Good luck with that, especially after lowering your car. Wings West sometimes has kist that keep a lot of clearance.

there were actually a few body kits they have that look pretty sexy, and that also give some clearance on the front bumper

well when I order big things for my car
the most that shipping has ever gotten is 100 dallors
so you should save up and get 800
because I bet that the kit only has ground shipping right
