Show us a pic of yours, maybe you are right and she is ugly
I have a ´92 SC400. It came with the front lip and in dark blue. I liked it a lot, then I put some new wheels and love it, after that I put 97+ front bumper and sideskirts, bigger wheels and painted jet black. At first I kinda missed my ´92 front, but now my car looks far newer and better. I´m very happy with that. Now I just need a lip and go lower

92-96=win....i have both models and I like the old one better... I kno everyone has there own opinion but if I thougt a car was ugly I would not have bought it. and actually im buying a supra now because the sc, to me, is more expensive to mod and I dnt feel like spending all my money on a car.... Search and ull see that the sc is no hand me down in the modding dept... gl

Maybe because im in Canada the price is cheaper, although ussualy its the oposite case.

Yes the whole 97 kit can be had here , brand new from the dealer for around $1200 and change.

The sides came to like $350, back bumper and fittings were around $500 and change and the front was $350 ish as well.

I have the front lip on my stock bumper so no need for the front bumper imo and i was going to just get the sides and rear.

Ive seen these 92 body styles with just the front lip and sides and they look very nice, I think migs is sporting that look right now.

This thread is stupid. OP if you don't like how your car looks, sell it.
