You could go for the euro look flared arches with huge rims(20'-22').The car all smooth,no handles or side protectors,rear wiper removed etc,.Just a thought!

Oh yeah!!! Or you can get some sweet LED windsheild squirters and a REALLY big exhaust tip!!! Also, if you get vinyl it adds about 2hp per square inch . . . . be sure to cut your springs because that will give you mad respect points too . . .

or

you can do this

Yeah, check the group buy section for the WIDE fenders that are for sale. I think they allow for 315's or 335's

I agree...if all Fc's were maintained accordingly, then we wouldn't be gawking at how nice this one looks .

Get some wheels.. bodykit is nice, but needs to be painted and fits only on this type car. If you get some nice wheels, it will change the look of your car and besides that, if you get another car, you could use the wheels again.. bodykit not.

example:
same car, same body, only different wheels

that is the dumbest thing ive heard .... the majority of FC's have no body kit and the ones that do have exterior mods are more likely to have a front lip then a complete bodykit... I would say maybe 10%-15% have GP (or replica) and thats only because GP is one of the most popular ones.

in any case i think most younger guys will vote yes and older guys will vote no ... thats just the way it is. Personally i like kits/lips so i voted yes
