Body Kit Advice

I'm looking for a body kit...need some advice though. I found this
website that sells them for pretty cheap, but I want to make sure
they're good...has anyone ordered anything from PaAutoracing before?
Let me know, wanna check it out before I buy. Thanks!

What car is this for? Civic? Accord? Integra? Similar rice project?

Fiberglas cracks and trears very easily.
The original bumper covers are urethane,flexible and much more durable.

Most of the cars I see with body kits have damaged air dams and read bumper
covers.Lowering the car makes it much more likely,too.

My advice is don't bother with a body kit. Spend the same amount of
money on real performance mods and you could have a pretty quick car.
Many body kits do nothing but give pedestrians and petrolheads a good laugh.

They also slow down the car since the kits are developed strictly for looks,
not be aid the vehicles aerodynamics.

Nothing wrong with jazzing up a car's "looks",but those body pieces are
usually fiberglas and do not hold up under normal driving;they crack and
tear.
And it's worse if you lower the body.

I too would rather have better performance.

Working out will do much more for your body than a body kit.

Working on drivetrains will definitely build your body.
My assignment the other day was to hand carry a segmented driveshaft
down the street for a carrier bearing press job.
They couldn't do it.
Back home, then I got a car to go another mile.
Feels good.

.... that you have no idea how to drive. Spend the first thousand on
driver schools. Otherwise, you end up with a car that's *way* better
than you'll ever be.
