oh, and there's no way ur gonna get ur whole car painted for 400 bucks... a good paint job will cost you anywhere from 1-3 thousand depending on where you go and if you have any custom paintwork you want done

to each is own i guess, you know that.  after you have it installed, let us know how much you dislike driving afterwards cause ur so worried about it cracking when you hit something

The money was burning a hole in my pocket.

I dont think the new front bumper is any lower than stock. My stock bumper is cracked in 3 spots.

get a new stock bumper and put a lip kit on it.....find a good one at  the junkyard..its gonna be way cheaper and much more better looking than the body lit

So we all know that the supercharged engines need the intake bypass valve so they work in reverse. Otherwise the supercharger would just suck all the air out of the cylinder

my point is that some like different things then others. but some ppl just have done downright nasty things to some of these cars and they deserve to be called ricers. the whole point of "tuning" is to improve all aspects of the car not just performance, but cosmetics as well. i mean theres nothing sweeter than a sleeper, but i have to say my front bumper is kindah f'ed, and the sides are kindah gauged and im in the same position as he is...
im gonna put a kit on mine as well.
but im not a huge fan of that kit... i dunno... it just looks like the car has a really funny grin.

this is the one that i have in mind, but for a good reason... large opening for FMIC ( i bought a large FMIC - 24x12x3 )

http://www.raceonusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=388 - Front Bumper
http://www.raceonusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=379 - Rear Bumper
http://www.raceonusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=6562 - Side Skirts
http://www.raceonusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=3639 - Hood 1
http://www.raceonusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=5973 - Hood 2

as far as hood goes im kindah tied between the 2 and the wing... i didnt spent time on yet.

Paint will be Black with silver metalic flake in it.
last thing on the list will be 8500K hid kit.

sorry but thats my taste :)
call me rice and see if i care...
i'm aiming for ~500 whp and i want to move as much air as i possibly can over that core.

sorry i didnt mean to hijack the tread

Why would you aim for 500whp on a GST? SUUUPER pointless.

Also, how can you say tuning is all aspects of a car? Tuning is nothing to do with exterior crap.

Why 700+ whp on FWD Drag cars ???
sure it will be fun at the track, and even funner on the street. but thats why we have boost controllers with gear specific boost setings... right ??
turn it up when needed, plus the added lag will improve streetability due to less wheel speen around town.

Thats retarded. You think it will be fun, even a 16g setup gets annoying.
