Body Kit Advice

Hey guys, I'm looking to pull the trigger on some new body pieces in the next week or so. I'd like to go with the K2 front with integrated grill, Impul sides and Chargespeed rear. I have an 2004 DG coupe with tint, lightly tinted tails, clear corners, HKS exhaust and I'll be getting my Shadow Black Work T1's (aggressive offsets) in May. I was wondering if I'm missing anything or will this kit flow well and look good together? Also, for anyone who has bought the K2, have you added a cover (mesh etc.) to the bumper, or left it as is? Thanks for all your help.

Aidan

I'm running a set of BC Racing Coils right now and I'll be dropping to so I have no wheel gap. I'm not going to completely slam it caveman style, but it'll have the stance to back up the bodykit. Is there a particular reason why you see this kit as needing that as compared to others?

oh no this kit isn't more special than others but ALL kits require a pretty darn good drop to look good

but yah that set will flow nicely, i believe the k2 sits a little higher than the rest so i would suggest maybe the kuruma, but MANY have done that before

That's what I was assuming, I just wanted to make sure that I hadn't overlooked something. The roads in Edmonton aren't great, so I don't want to run a really low front bumper. In your opinion, is the cs rear noticeably different than stock. I wish I could see one in person, but up here, no one runs an aftermarket rear.

Sounds good. Thanks for the input Eurodre, I definitely appreciate all your help. In person, is the cs wider and bulkier? It looks like the wheel arches are also more pronounced? I considered a Nismo diffuser, but for the price I've been quoted, the cs can't be beat in terms of value.

you might want to check the reviews on vendors, some have come up lately that have questioned their validity

shop around for the best prices and quality
