do you neeeeed them, no. the front and rear lips are sexy without them and your rims draw attention away from where the side skirts would go

would the car look sexier with them, probably yes, but its whether you think its necessary for the $$.. of course it would complete the look/kit, but i think it looks good w/out it too

I agree, no need for side skirts, and I love your drop. Those Eibach springs are awesome.

i think you should get it!! the front and back looks a little lower... it looks fine without it but with it i think with INGS side would make it look more aggressive!
