Im looking to put a bodykit on my car since my dad ran into my front bumper. I wanna keep my foglights so i was looking at the stillen lip kit, but im not really liking the sides that much. I wanted to do the front lip with the extreme dimensions side and the stillen rear corners. wanted to get peoples opinion on this.

on a side note, wanted peoples opinion on tires. picked up a set of the 19" nismo a34 and need tires for them. looking for dry and wet weather. snow isnt that important since probably gonna pick up another set of tire for that

the stillen lip kit won't get you a new front bumper... so you will still need to get / repair your oem front bumper. I say go with the stillen and you can either mount fog universal foglights in there (dangeris did it on his stillen fascia) or even get some LED bars (look up LED bars by lightwerkz).

As far as tires, if you have a dedicated winter set, then get summer tires, most will give you enough traction for rain.... there's no point doing all seasons and winters. It's better to have 1 summer tire set and 1 winter set.

i would think about wiring universal foglights to the stillen fascia, but dont know anything bout electricals.

also was wonder if the extreme dimension body draws alot of negative attention (ie police)...esp the rear bumper

hey toxik you have any good recommendations on tires? i think ny has about the same weather as md
