I was planning on getting a stillen lip without the rest of the body kit however I'm afraid it will look wrong or it would stand out too much. I'm not lowered and have SE rims. I could get the full kit but I dot realy have the money since i would rather just buy a y-pipe with the savings, funds are limited. Anyways my wheel gap will stand out even more since its not lowered. I could also save money on the lip and replace my b-pipe and muffler since theyre VERY rusty and the first layer of my muffler is busted, but since i dont realy get any hp gains i might as well just replace it when i realy need to. If the lip looks alright, ill go for it...

If anyone has any pics of this setup, i would appreciate getting a better idea. Thanks in advance to anyone who offers opinions.....

my boy has a stillen kit without a drop, it looks low for some reason but not as low as mine. the lip around the car gives the car a lower look than what it actually is

You could get the lip now and the rest later, but you would save money in the long run if you bought it complete now.
If you don't want the whole thing, don't get any. Just my opinion.

Drop the car first. Bodykit with stock height=teh rice.

Drop your car, save money for your body kit, call it a day.

Thanks for all the great responses. IMO it doesn't look that bad, although theres still an incomplete look. I totaly agree about droping it before I would get the full kit. Love to go for suspension mods, but I'd rather go for the full thing and get full coilovers when I have the money sice the price differences can be relatively small for what you get (vs struts&sprigs). Im not even sure if i will be able to insure my car with a modifed suspension lol. I might just do some work on exhaust , for the money I don't even think theres anything else I could get that is realy worthwhile.
