What First: Bodykit Or Rims?
Um..im planning to get a bodykit and rims during the next few months..I was just thinking what should i get first.
My car is lowered so im worried that if i get bodykit and leave the stock 15" rims i would scrape it. So if i got the rims first it would raise the car abit, but then the problem is that the new rims might look bad with the bodykit, so i dont really know what to do...

True true..but then again, if i decide to get a bodykit later on, it would be easier to match rims than a bodykit. Oh well..thanks for ur advice guys. Rims it is! wink1.gif

forget a bodykit man. they don't make any really nice bodykits for our cars. contact chris (blacktibs) about getting yourself a nice sexy F2 EVO bumper! have it sprayed white.
then get yourself some very nice silver 17's. then go onto suspension work and you'll be all set.
why get a fiberglass bodykit that will crack on you and slowly deteriorate when you can just spend that money on cooler things? don't get me wrong, some bodykits on here really are nice and all, i just like the rd1's stock and maybe a little rally sex up front. take my words for it.

Get some 17" Ozzy Racing 068 or 080 style rims mate... they'll make your car look hot even without a kit fing02.gif
Btw, I can't get my car into the body shop until the 23rd of this month which sucks but I'll post pics of the bumper as soon as the car is all fixed & painted. I'm hoping it'll look subtle enough to look good even without skirts & a rear (or rear pods). Otherwise I'll prolly end up with the Bomex skirts from Carmate with slightly modified Newstyle rear pods.
