Stillen--?--Sarona

I feel like getting a kit soon for my car, and I decided on a stillen lip and a sarona rear bumper, but I can't decide on the skirts, I dont like the sarona's mainly cuz of the lil slits on it. What doesn't look to cutty, if anything I guess I might get the stillen. Will this setup look right? Also, where can I get grilles, besides the trenz grille. Not a fan of it. I went to grille-tech, which is the one I kinda wanted, but they dont have em for 99s.. so all help will be appreciated. Thanks a lot

omg, your just like me, i love sarona back bumper and i think stillen front lip is best because its the least aggressive but not the most boring. As far as sides, i like the sarona sides a lot but like the bumper its fiberglass and there's a big chance you may kill your kit in a short period of time if your not a careful driver. When i DO get a kit, if they dont come out with something better looking than sarona, i'll get sarona back, sarona or skyline sides depending on how it looks and definitely stillen front.

Whats the best price you've seen sarona kit for or the parts of it??

I personally think there is no choice between these two kits. The Sarona kit looks really nice but the quality of the kit is crap. Be prepared for fitment issues and the possibilty of cracking (more so with the side skirts). They are very thin and it wont take much to crack them....I have the stillen kit on my car now and the qualtiy is so much better.

Do a search on the sarona kit because I don't think there has been much positive feedback from this kit.

I know that fiberglass is really crap. I havent really heard many people about fitment issues, ill search about that. But I also haven't heard of many people cracking the rear bumper. The front yes, but not much so the back. How many cases have you heard of the rear bumper cracking. Thanks a lot

Depends on how high the parking bump or sidewalk is where you park. I always back in and there is a Blockbuster by me that I swear the sidewalk is about 1 foot up.

I agree with you 100% but the trouble is that is an opinion.
