Default how would this look?

CDC aggressive chin spoiler, Roush wing and 1/4 louvers, xenon side scoops, with maybe roush rocker moldings.

I like the full Roush body kit, but whenever I get around to doing body mods I don't think I want something "out of a box" since it'll look like all the other Roush kits. There isn't anything wrong with that, but I'm thinking about mixing up a few of the options I like to give it a more personal feeling. Anyways this isn't anything that will be happening soon (cai, tune, and short throw, will all come first ) but I just wanted to get some opinions.

Thanks!

Do it. Plenty of people here mix and match kits all the time. It gives it your own personal touch. I have nothing against full body kits either. Don't like the Rousch wing but to each his own. Do you have stock wheels? I dont like our cars that have kits and factory wheels. Some canget away with it.Its rare but doesnt look complete to me.

Right now I have stock 17s but I want to upgrade to 18's...still trying to find something. I also want to get an ebach prokit/lower control arms/whatever the hell else i need for a drop, but I want to get a little more go before I pack on some show. It's probably going to be a slow accumulation of parts here and there; I just want to get pointed in a direction.

Thanks for the replies!

definitely go with what you think will look good. the questions you ask at mf will only give you more insight, however you shouldn't follow them to the dot. remember this is your car and you're the one that has to see it everyday. do what you like, make it sound the way you like and nothing else will matter. it will give you a deeper sense of appreciation for your car.

good luck with the mods.

I would suggest CDC Classic over the Agressive (though I have Agressive) unless you are going to (able to) do an seamless install. ...can look a bit tacky with seams and fitment. Classic is easy, better if you hit something, etc. Here is my Agressive and one that was not done seamless.

Oh, i know it is ultimately up to what I like...I just want to get some other opinions because I haven't seen many of these parts in person.

Thanks for the heads-up fairlane, is the process of doing it seemless that much more difficult? Would it be better to have a shop do it?

I think side scoops and louvers are to much on yhe s197s, just makes it look to busy in my opinion, but thats just me I like a simple clean look, but even with side scoops and louvers it would look better then 95% of the other cars out there.

Yeah thats what I did!! I have about 5 or 6 different kits on my car and I get compliments all the time. Just make sure that everything that you put on your car fits well together. Don't match a kit that has more curves with a kit that has a lot of sharp edges!!!!

Go ahead mix and match. It's how you can personalize to your own taste. Take your time in making decisions.
