where exactly are u ordering this kit from? Because i wish to order the same version kit but i can only find it for 750+ . BTW go with version unless u want to put a huge fmic on your sc. I believe if u want to be "different' u should go with another body kit besides those two.

Looks like your car is slammed.
With the front bumper on, you will have about 1 inch ground clearance from the back end of the front bumper to the ground.
Your bumper will last a day.

i remember you haveing trouble with the fitment. i have the whole kit on my car and i had no trouble at at with mine.
both kits are nice, but with the origin kit the mouth is huge so w/o a fmic it might look to open imo.

supra koni yellows, supra intrax.... if its too low i can always reverse the cups on the springs and get another half inch or so of height. Here in FL the roads are really smooth, my only fear is the occasional road debris on the highway.

I would go with the Origin front only if you have a FMIC to put in.

uughh its 8-10 week wait for the origin front bumper, none are in stock, and its 200 more. Ill have to see, i only need a body kit cause my front and rear bumpers are nasty looking.. i dont really care about orginality or that stuff. Its just a friend repaying me back for helping him out.
