Does your G stop now? It would make me nuckingfuts to have all those cool body parts sitting around ready to go to paint and install. Thinking how cool they would look on my ride....the Mu's will still be there too. Not too sure their blue calipers will look great behind my cider colored DPE's?

Body kit... It's going to make a far bigger visual difference then a BBK. People are more impressed with a nice/aggressive stance and kit then they are with some colorful brake calipers. Unless you NEED the BBK for track purposes go for the Body Kit.

My vote would be paint the body kit... Finish one project at a time.. Once the body kit is on, painted and your enjoying it, then set some funds aside and start looking for a good deal on a used BBK. People trade these cars in all the time... Catch someone looking to sell them before trading in...

I think everyone forgot to ask what brakes you have on there now?

Like was stated was is the purpose of the brakes? Are you tracking the car? What kind of power do you need to stop?

If you already have the kit i would paint that and use some caliper paint for the time being to do the brakes.

Personally I'd go with the kit as the Mu's while nice aren't that functional unless you're going for track purposes. Kit will look amazing and you'll enjoy it more imo.

I like the kit choices too... still debating on CS rear or nismo diffuser myself.

Completely agree! And go with nismo, I like the stock rear. ^ That is always an option. JWT TT FTW!
