Shine/Auto Couture Measurement...
Could someone with a shine/auto couture kit get a measurement for me....
I am looking for the overall vertical length of both front bumper and rear bumper....i.e from where front bumper meets fender to bottom of bumper.....and rear bumper from taillights....
I want to see how much lower the bumper sits than my stock sc300 bumpers....
Thanks in advance

It's definitely lower but not as low as the Vertex kit.

it really depends on what look your going for with the shine body kit.
18's wheel fenders you will need to drop the car alot but the sides will have a gap.
19's wheel fenders are more filled out well i mean it is because it is a bigger wheel, as ive herd most people wish they had bought 19's on this kit. (everyone has different taste)
tire sizes come into major play here. if you like the more grip look with more meat on the tires go 18's
if you like the stretched out look w/ thin looking rubbers go 19's
not sure if wheel type comes into play as well if you love angelina jolie lips or concave / no lip rims because all size and offsets are different (but that seems like a different discussion at this point)
in the end it really matters how much gap you want between your wheel and fenders "all the way around" not just the top of the wheel that meets the fender, because you can always adjust your drop when it comes to that on any wheel.
just make sure you ROLL the fenders. your tires will thank you.

The Auto Couture bumper and sideskirts hang pretty low with 18"s. I had 18"s and the kit would have made my SC sit too low. I think 19"s or 20"s would be better looking. However FSUsucks1's SC looks pretty good though.
If you currently have the stock 92 front bumper it will hang much lower. The Shine/Auto Couture bumper sits like a 97 bumper with a lip on it.
