does any gc/gm use these? I am not with all show no go, but when i do get it fast i plan on getting one, do people rock them

some do, i myself would never, i prefer the 99-01 front bumper with lip, fog light covers, aggressive eye lids, 22b vents and jdm side skirts and rear spats and maybe i guess the 22b body kit... so yea i guess so check it out online the 22b body kit, only one id ever rock

what is this 'body kit' you speak of ? The RS great as is, only exception is bigwigs chargespeed kit. or only if you're lucky enough to get a 22b sports bumper. The only worthy body kits are the ones we probably cant afford.

I think the the GM/GC chassis looks fine as it is. It sort of has a body kit look to it at stock.

Most exterior mods, outside of JDM additions, look horrible.

Do people rock body kits? Sure. Do they typically look better than the stock Subaru stuff with a lip? No. The RS basically looks like it already has a body kit on it anyway. Hell, one time I got asked if I had an EVO body kit, when all I had was a P1 front lip.

The only "body kit" I really like is the C-West kit. Google it and you'll see what I mean. Do-Luck isn't bad, but the C-West can retain the fog lights, which is a nice touch, so it still looks sort of like a GC8.

i'd agree for the most part asside from the C-west kit as noted, and possibly the Prova Exterior

+1 for the c-west. some one just posted a thread this week and is rockin the c-west. he really needs some morettes but other than that it looks pretty nice

i'm currently dressing up my GD but as for a full body kit i kinda like the stock look fow now. once i finish up with the exhaust and suspension and wheels and the like then maybe i'll rock the full thing. what i really like to see is the rear diffuser. maybe in the carbon fiber flavor.
