What's the best bolt-on body kit

Hey I was just looking at finally getting a body kit for my lancer and I was wondering what the best body kit is that I wouldn't have to make any mods to or have to fit. That kind of crap is annoying and causes to many headaches. Also I wanna know what everyone thinks is the best looking body kit because I don't wnat anything that makes my car look to honda civic like. Thanks all.

ken style. the front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts are perfect fit. rear bumper needs modification. check my thread. its imported from japan and i am doing a group buy. tues or wed. perfect time to ask !! its not cheap. its also not cheap in quality. there are no other bolt on body kits. this has style, class, an aggressive look and unmatched reputation. check out the link be one of the firdt in USA to own the best lancer kit in the world. dont settle for this other stuff that :"says" bolt on or no mods necessary. just ask around about how true that is....

ken style fits just as good ecxept rear lip which kaminari doesnt have even. so with the front bumper, side skirts and grill perfect fit 100% only three cars in US have it and only had to modify rear lip. ask kontradictions about the rest of the piecs. he cant believe how perfect they fit.

Well I like the Apex or the ken style kit but I don't wanna mess around with any mods. Thats just not what I wanna deal with. I wanna get it paint it and throw it on. I want to make my car look more bad-a** and I'm not getting that from the kaminari kit.

kaminari

plus it's the best looking IMO (except if you want the kombat/ultra agressive look)

if you dont want hassles and a $2000 - $3250 installation i would say you should not look toward accolade. alot of installation problems. they are why im doing this with the ken style kits. i had a $2000 experience in installation and that was without hood and spoiler.

kiddo slow down man, jesus i read your posts and picture a sleazy car salesman. kaminari does have a perfect fit rear bumper and if im not mistaken kontradictions body kit came off the yellow modern images lancer so if there were any fitment issues they were resolved by modern images before kontra put it on his car. and yeah lets not have any 2000.00 dollar install problems. but wont we be spending close to that just to get your mystical and magically perfect super ken style kit? price of your kit plus paint and instal and pow we are back to a 2300.00 install. just some observations. dont get me wrong the ken style kit looks great just not 15 c-notes great.

actually 2wenty2, i am nothing close to a sleazy car salesman. if you knew what i went through to get these kits for us you would appreciate my comments. i damn near went bankrupt putting my kit on and promised i would not let 10-20 other people here go through the same thing. i post everywhere because before people buy other kits i want them to see that i have done what i believe to be the best thing for our community. ive been working on this import for well over 1 1/2 months and have sacrificed my savings to pay the part of the kits that i dont require down. the difference in spending $2000 on my kit thats on my car and $2000 for ken style kit is that mine is already cracking and warping. not gonna happen with the ken style kit. do you really think im here for the money. im here as a evolving member that thought it would be appreciated that i sacrificed alot to bring us better quality. if you dont like my price just say so. dont dog on me. is kamanari paying you? why so defensive? im just letting everyone know that ken style fits great and its worth the rear bumper lip fitment to have the best quality. thats all

besides i wasnt even talking about kamanari. look at what i said "accolade" and i may be wrong but last i chacked kamanari doesnt have rear bumper.
and i get the point 2wenty2 you dont want to spend 1500 or so on a good kit. leave it alone.

check again salesman. and what you are doing is taking everyone who is interested in kits that are not your ken style kit and saying to them dont get that get mine its quality. dont get kaminari mine fits perfect too (except the rear bumper) dont look at the evo 7 kit, my kit looks good and is quality, dont do that get my kit. i expect to go to a rims and tires thread and see you pushing your group by there "you know what would look great with your new rims? my body kit!!!". heres what im saying we all browse the threads if someone is looking for a body kit they are gonna check the body kit threads there is no reason for you to stick your group buy into every thread that mentions the word body kit. shoppers will find your offer too. stop trying to pull people away from what they may want let them decide. and we do appreciate you going through all this to offer the kit. but options mean more than one choice let me people make that choice no reason to stick your face into everyone elses searches

and im done
