I wouldn't put any of that stuff on my car. The car as OEM has smooth simple lines that don't look bad from any angle. If you think spending money on body kits and show car wings is the way to go, then by all means...

Body kits should be subtle not gawdy! That stuff you have pics of, destroys the clean lines of the car.

I'm glad I'm not the only who feels that way. I've got an S13 fastback and as much as I've looked around, I can't really find anything I'd put on the car as far as body kits go. Cosmetically, my car just needs some fresh paint, wheels and a bit of lowering and it's exactly how I want it on the exterior.

I've contemplated putting a subtle wing on it, but I can't even find one I like.

Besides, as much as I don't care for the kit, just the side skirts would look very odd with the other body pieces stock.

Edit: I thought I was just an old fart.

Seeeeee, there’s a reason why old people don't like body kits, and now you know .

Not to mention the fact that it's hideous, it's been on every kind of car, and looks bad on all of them.Get something slightly more subtle if you feel the need to impress the local Civics/Eclipses. That way you'll be more RWD than them, and look better.
