Scrap it? lol, just joking.....i am not a big fan of kits, but i just think that that kit is a little too low for my taste. and the lower grill piece looks so thin i could break it when washing the car.....i just think that the kenstyle and evo VII conversion are the only nice kits, and that one just looks like any $300 kit you can buy for your civic, sunfire, cavalier, etc. in any modifier magazine......sorry but i give it two thumbs down

i personally like it! although i would be a bit concerned about the thickness of that lower grill area. Neverthe less with some nice mesh in there to give it some content (or an IC i think you should run with it... and it'll end up looking real hot! also can't wait to see the fendor flares you speak of.
another good point is its one of a kind?
keep up the good work!

Actually, i'm having no problems clearing bumps. The only time i seem to have a problem is comming off an incline front first, then I hit a little but not enough to do any damage, but other then that i clear basically everything without having to turn the car at an angle.....

not bad but....

looks allright but the skirts need some help, they need either a vent or some sort of lines to them, right now they sorta look like oversized OEM skirts, and yeah, toughen up that front end, thats a $500 parking f$ck-up waiting to happen. Good stuff though.

OK, the sides do have some design to them, they actually twist, but I am having vents put in them. As far as the height, I am on the progress springs.....

i like the front bumper, the sideskirts seem a little too much to me.

in my opinion, i wouldnt have had the body kit so low so i can get rid of the wheel gap with air suspension or something. cause if u try to lower it any further..i dont think it'll like it walking down the road i like it overall tho!

Just to give you a better perspective on the height, my buddy "Quicksilver_OZ" has the Ken style front and is dropped on the Eibach springs. I sit maybe a 1/4 inch lower.
