welcome to the site.
Sorry man, but youre probably not going to get any love from a lot of guys on here (myself included) when you go with the body kits and huge wings etc. Its not that we are completely performance oriented, because i love a good looking GP, and i wish i had more money to put towards the appearance of my car, but we just arent into ricer stuff.

finally got a chance to open those pics. I would like to say, if you like those kits, dont listen to these guys, spend your money on your car however you want. Dont be surprised, though, if you hear ppl singing "...the San Francisco treat..." when you roll by. The rims are REALLY nice. The hood these ppl are suggesting..., eh, your car has no way of making it functional, so I wouldnt. The spoiler: We are NEVER gonna get to the speeds required to make a spoiler functional. But their recommendation does make the car look more American and less, well, Tokyo. As I said, your choice, the GP will make just about ANYTHING look good.

Well said. There's a difference between going overboard, like putting a giant handle on your trunk (which is my defintion of "Rice"), and doing something tasteful, like an SD spoiler.

The large rice wings make it much easier for the driver to push the car to the nearest shop. Its almost like pushing a shopping cart.

I agree with Austin and Ordonez, the SD package is tasteful but not overdone like that "ironing board" spoiler.
