Re: Body Kit

Cheap and decent rarely go hand in hand. Then there's the issue of fitment. Your best bet is to search some local boneyards for the gfx that comes stock on the year model car your trying to emulate. Purchasing stock gfx is not hard if your patient, picky and have a willingness to put some sweat and elbow grease into purchase, prep. and paint. Due to shipping costs and concerns your local pull-a-part will be your best first step. Scavenge locally and possible rual areas (with in reason, gas prices being what they are these days) for possiblilities. Once you've exhausted all local/nearby options, check ebay, craigslist, and site for sale/sponsors. Just make sure you dont turn the car into some kind of funky looking bug via an import style "Battle" or "Vader" or "Blackwidow" Kit

Re: Body Kit

I agree with Doc_G. The stock style gfx fit these cars the best. I have a bunch that I could sell you if you are interested. My prices are good too!! LOL, PM me if interested.
