That one kind of contradicts itself, if you want to play you have to pay.

Fugly if you ask me. Also, for the cost you're willing to pay for a body kit you can buy an S/C and have a nice deal of availible power. Remember, it's just not the kit cost, but the paint/install cost as well, which can bring any good quality body kit cost up to around $3000-4000 if the whole car has to be repainted, $1700-2200 for just the kit, paint, and install.

A used S/C can be netted for between $1700-2600 and new can be obtained for around $3200. They can need additional parts and depending on your level of knowledge will still need to be professionally installed, however, if it were me, I'd rather spend several grand of something that will make my car perform rather than be like a ricer.

he already told you he would spend his money on performance mods... and I agree with him. The invader kid is a ricer kit [:'(] If you must have a body kit... saleen or roush

DO NOT go with the Invader Kit. That is the worst kit I've ever seen IMO! If you are dead set on a kit, go with the challenger kit, roush,or the stalker. If it were my ride, I'd go with a chin spoiler, grill delete kit, remove spoiler if you have one,and drop springs. GL
