EDIT -- Doh, missed the answer to my question

Anyway, I was bored so here's a photoshopped pic of that black SC with black AC Lative wheels... essentially what I want to do to my SC



...and yes, they would have more lip in real life

I love my Vertex Lip kit.

Just got it painted, rolled my fenders etc....

Haven't looked through the whole thread but thought I'd slap this pic up here.

There are no knockoff's of the AC kit, right? That would make it all the more desirable to me.

I'm torn between the 97 conversion and the AC kit. 97+ fogs are still required for the AC, is that correct?

The AC looks very very clean. First on my list.

The vertex lip kit would be second on my list.

I was just pricing these out. Talk to Carson-Lex for most kits, they seem to offer the best price around and are a CL approved vendor. I doubt anyone has found a lower price on a kit, unless it was a one-time deal.

And thanks to SickSC3. I knew there was a difference, but it's REALLY hard to tell from that picture. Man do they look a lot alike!
