Nice car, but this is the tC thread...you want to put this in the xA area, or maybe a mod will do that for you

Not a fan of the XA in any way shape or form. But I can appreciate fixing up what you got. (to a point, not a rusted clunker)

Now you just need to drop that thing down a couple inches with a good suspension!

Thanks for the suggestion, if I lived in Florida or California "some place flat" it would have been done already but where I live in the mountains it may not be such a good idea.

Will be working first on sound system upgrade and accent lighting.

even with a 2" you have zero worries about anything. That kenstyle kit on the rs is mild so you wont be dragging bottom or coming close. trust me on this, the ride and looks of the car will increase 10 fold and you will have zero clearence worries.

that kenstyle kit came on the release series?
and it isn't fiberglass?

is it possible to find the lip somewhere that is not fiberglass?

Nice car, I'd have to agree wit hthe others and say to give it a respectable drop considering your lacation...perhaps an inch for aesthetics.

Did anyone tell you that you look just like Rulon Gardner in that picture?
