AutoCouture bodykit help.
I called AutoCouture today(office in USA) and the guy said theres a full front bumper available and just the front lip, the lip which was about half the price of the full front bumper. Same with the rear. He told me the little difference between the full front bumper and the lip is mainly the the foglights. As you can see in this pic below, the foglights are oval for the full front bumper.
In almost all the other pics in the photo gallery, including the one with the pic of the SC with the dazz matiz, the foglights are factory fogs which leads me to think that those pics with factory fogs have only the AutoCouture front lip.
My computer screen is real crappy so i cant see any other major differences between the lip and the full front bumper. I cant even see the vents beside the factory foglights. The guy at AutoCouture also said there is no sideskirts avialable either. Can anyone confirm this? I cant really tell in the pictures above.
What do you guys think look better? The front lip itself imo doesnt look bad at all. But for roughly 500$, one can have a full front bumper and new foglights and he also said the new bumper has different air intake path(which doesnt really matter to me). The wait on the full front and rear bumper is approx 2-3 months, for it has to be made in japan and shipped to the USA. The front and rear lips are available now. Any comments?

Personally, I like the full bumper (the top photo), I think the ovalish foglights look better and the bumper design itself looks better...they aren't that similar if you see them in person.
No sideskirts...correct...
I say wait for the full front!

pot_head- I'm with Manaray, wait for the full front/rear bumpers. The oval foglights looks better IMO and it would make your SC more unique.
If your looking for a kit with side skirts, I believe Wald makes one for the SC430. I think someone posted a pic of their white SC with the Wald kit in the SC430 gallery.
