I want this Bodykit... what do you guys think?

it comes with
* Front Bumper
* 2 Side Skirts
* Rear Bumper


They also have a video of a guy beating the living monkeys outta the bumper with a heavy hammer, and nothing happens to it... but the kit is fiberglass... what do you guys recommend? (Body kit is $499 + $150 shipping.





EDIT:

I've decided to follow the advice, and NOT get it.

So I'm going with the pricier one that i like... http://www.body-kit.com/lan02e7ts.html ...

i like the style with the evo 5 fogs and everything, but it seems a little bit iffy. If you can find one with better quality i say go for that one.

Honestly it sounds like the fitment is not all that great.. and fiberglass is a pita to work with.. I would honestly consider another body kit. but if it's your dream. go for it.. just be forewarned..

click the link in my sig to see how fiberglass holds up to bumps. If you are going to pay that much, might as well go with the Kaminari for a few more bills and save a lot more down the road.

Ah ok. Thanks (everyone) for the advice. I love the rapid responses in this forum compared to others. I'll follow through and not buy it. If I could find that same one not being fiberglass that'd be awesome.. but I guess I'm going to have to go with one that I found that was $1,200.

well go with what you like man. if you don't like the $1,200 one, then don't get it. look around as much as possible, and find one that will suit you best. good luck man

I really like this one to be honest with you:

http://www.body-kit.com/lan02e7ts.html ... full body kit = ~$1,200

It's beautiful imo... I'm already hooked up on paint jobs & installation... all i have to do is GET the kit lol.

Save money and get an oz lip kit, then buy a turbo.

don't you think that looks goofy how the back bumper sticks so far out? i've seen a kit like that on a cavalier and it looked like a tug boat.

Yeah it does look sick... but do you think that the open vents would decrease the car's aerodynamics?
