Default RMM vs L-Sportsline body kits.

OK guys...

Which kit should I go with....RMM or L-Sportline...

Anyone have installed this kit on a Cinnabar GS and would be willing to post pics?

Thanks guys.

RMM if you don't have an LSportline exhaust. Lsportline if you do. Lsportline bumpers are pretty deep and if you have an exhaust your exhaust tips won't stick out flush.

I'd question quality and fitment for both kits although if it were me I'd go RMM simply cuz they sell it in dealerships whilst Lsportline they don't for the GS. (At least I haven't seen any). When you sell your car you can say it is a dealer install option for price negotiation. Lsportline you may not get value for.

Personally, I'd just add a lip (TTE) change your skirts (Lsportline) and get a spoiler.

You're better off that way so you keep your stock paint. Especially on a 98' it's harder to color match for paint fading over time.

Plus, whenever you do body replacements especially bumpers, you'll hear squeaking whilst add ons it's not normally the case

Is normally the case or is it dependent of the quality of the kit? Are you speaking from experience...which kit(s)? The reason I'm asking is I'm waiting on my body kit to arrive and I have never heard anyone with either of the kits meantioned complain about skueaking.

I would go with the L-Sportline bodykit as well as the exhaust this whole kit is off the hook it's a bit expensive but it is worth it. I have the complete L-Sportline Body kit, sittin on 20 inch (20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear) Dronell's BR for my white GS4 and it looks hot. unfortunately I don't have the Pics uploaded yet, I will work on it over the weekend.
