Other thoughts would be get the paint work done and tack on a spoiler or hood or both depending on what you can afford. Besides, if you don't already have wheels, spoiler and hood, I think GFX look a little out of place anyway.

good point, new wheels, drop, then a kit i waited for my xenon kit to go on cuz i couldnt aford the wheels an tires i wanted, so i jus waited a few months when the funds were there, trust me you'll thank us later

lol which reminds me....i need to update my pics

nah with 18's dropping the car wouldnt be much hassel or danger, ive got double diamond sfc's, hooker Lts, and a boxed trans brace i think i scraped maybeeeeeeeee once an it was because i hit a pot hole filled with water an didnt see how deep it really was an there was a bump in the road right after it, its totally your decision i dunno how careful u drive or anything, but i personally i try to avoid most bumps, potholes etc....i kno alotta people like that. an....good choice with that hood, you dunno how bad i was flamed for it when it came out an i put it on, now i see more an more of them =)

yea i got a little opposition, but now everyone has one! i like it because its not the typical ss hood. when i do the ls1 conversion, I will be getting the LS1 version of it.

I would buy the BSM Type II kit if I was going to spend that kind of cash on a kit. In fact, I sure do wish my car payments would hurry up and run out.

I agree the original BSM kit looks much better than the new topspeed kits, however, I still prefer my Wings West kit for a clean look

To actually make GFX look right, you have to seamlessly mold them to the car IMO. I will be molding on some bodykits for a few people this season. I'll make sure and post pics of the progress.
