body kits or lip kits

[sexytime]

I have a body kit on my ej1 i know its all about jdm now days but i like my car. just tell me what you all like. (Body or lip kits)

[wannab20hatch]

i like lip kits. just accents the car nicely. body kits are just to much. they usually dont flow with the car.

IMO

thinks man well my car does not have any hp at all i just like it. lol i know it stands out but hey i only paid like 200 for the finders and the kit.

[Elbow]

If you like it then good for you, if everyone took everyone opinions in every car would look like shit.

[TRD tC]

it really depends on what car for me..

wide body with front cf splitter and rear diffusers make me jizz.. for race applications

lip kits for the street looks nice.. ie. lexus is250/350 front spoiler.

yea your right they would look like shit, i just like to know what other people are in to.

Body kits look like turd.... well i take that back, 95% of them look like turd.

They are one of the big reasons why the Honda community is flammed so much. Big ass body kits that supposedly make youre car look "good" and "fast", when infact the cars they are on are almost guaranteed to be slow as piss. It just looks like youre trying so hard to be cool.

Iv never understood....

Just my opinion on the matter

[JITB]

I like whatever looks good....

im just tired of seeing stock bodied cars... its clean but...:(
especially with cars that have sooo many options!

Depends on the kit and the car. Some cars look great stock but could look a little more agressive with a lip kit. But some cars have just a particular body part that could look better, such a better bumper or grill etc..

As long as everything flows and nothing stick out or is too loud, too obnoxious then it's whatever. "clean" is what I go for.

SRT4/Eclipse!! front end is just too good to make better.. with a aftermarket bumper

lip kits son, jdm aside, it jus looks way better, bodykits stand out and never look good on cars

[OneSlow5pt0]

I like subtle things, Lips, Fender flares (or other means of a slight buldging above the wheels arcs, deeper looking grills (like the Mutang Mach one grill delete that makes the grill between the headlights look like it flows straight into the intake runners), rear diffusers, and lips. Things of this sort are really my cup of tea. I also like really W-I-D-E rubber instead of stretched rubber, meaty looking tires are a plus, on properly offset wheels too, flush mount with flared fenders are SEX, especially if the offset makes the wheel have a lip (preferably polished). Carbon fiber bits, and extra vents and mesh and such are a big turnoff for me. A wing depends on the car and what type of wing it is.

[MINI]

Body kits have so many factors for them to look good. Fitment, style, etc.

I am not a fan of overblown body kits, but as long as its clean and everyting flows them I love them.

And put the damn thing on correctly.

I like lips too, only they can be cliche

[G.C]

Agree with a lot of the comments. Body kits can look good if you get the right ones that doesn't over do it.

But that's rare to see.Most of the time, they put the most ridiculous kit that doesn't even flow with the body. Like the car in your sig op.

What ever you like on your car is all that should matter. PERIOD.
