i like the lip. how much and where can i acquire one? sideskirts are too agressive for the conservative look of the rest of the car. i like stock ones the best.

i dont like the 97+ body anyways. i would never upgrade to it. if i came across a 97+ car that i was parting out i would sell the chit out of it and get some other stuff for my car. 97+ body is over rated and IMHO looks retarded. i think that 99% of the kits for the Sc look way too funky.

my perfect SC is:
sc400 or equivalent lip on 95-96 bumper
97+ sideskirts
97+ rear or rear lip for stock bumper

yeaaa its my 600th post!!!!

this lip looks very nice and very clean, i think i've seen this lip or a similar style lip on an SC or two. i didn't like the 97+ body kit at first but i like it more than i used to. It looked too little of a difference for me but it just looks clean and simple.

The 97 body is over rated and looks retarted yet your perfect SC includes 97 side skirts and 97 rear.

Another knockoff again... but I think there's enough threads for knockoff love on here

+1... Gotta hate people with Vertex/Wald/AC kits that all follow the factory 1997 styling hey.

No I think its a Behrman/Wisesquare.... The lip kit is nice, I have a 97+ front end but thats only cuz I hit something at 90mph. The one thing I really like about the 92-96 front is the line that follows the hood down to the high beams. The thing I like about the 97+ is the fogs and the ducts next to the fog.

The skirts look to be a Vertex knock off... if you go to the wedsite thats selling the kit you have the picture of, you'll see they have 2 similar skirts. The only noticable difference is the how far they come out, the vertex one is a little wider.

If you really look at the front bumper from a 97+ compared to 92-96 you'll notice that the 97 is a wider to fit the side skirts/rear bumpers. I've personally seen it for myself since I've had both, as for it being "over rated and retarded" thats all in taste... I'd have to say that 80-90% of the people on the forum wouldnt agree. Let me use this comparison... 92-96= Cameron Diaz.... 97+ Scarlet Johanson. They're both nice but.. you get the picture.

LOL - I was just wondering the same thing. 2/3rds of your perfect kit therefore looks retarded
