Depends on what type of body style you want, stock/sleeper or a more aggressive look?

Why is the Vertex kit so appealing to people on here? I seriously can not stand that kit, I think it's so ugly.

If you're gonna dish out cash for real ****, might as well go Auto Couture. It's the 97+ with sexyness.

97+ suits me well...affordable, not over the top, OEM and beautiful.

I have a stock 97 and it just looks mean. I get so many looks around town and the only cosmetic mod i have are 18s. If this car is going to be a daily driver then go with the 97+ body so you don't have to worry about speed bumps and curbs.

Do something cheap because if you "drift" then you will most likely damage the new. Don't do anything too fancy until you either get better or stop. Hope you're keeping it off the public roads
