Should I lower my car without a body kit, or body kit without drop?

after drop with coilovers


if you look closely to see the top of the stock size tires, you can tell that the eibach/tokico was not a very apparent drop. so i guess somewhat like that.
What kit is that? Brings out the stock look beautifully.

Its not exactly flat/nice terrain where everybody lives and i dont exactly enjoy going out of my way to miss a pothole, curve, etc...

Keep in mind that while the body on the above car is stock, it is also a 97+ SC which practically comes with a bodykit.

Thanks Hass - welcome to the CL world!

As for the 97 kit - that is just showing both extremes....that is the best route to go, IMO.

If it were me, I would do the 97 body upgrade, and then the Wald skirts. IMHO, one of the best looking setups, followed closely by the Auto Couture and JIC Magic kits.

There are plenty of classy kits that follow the SC's lines, and those come to mind.
