Can I rock with only a front lip????

This may sound stupid, but I see alot of 4 Gen's with only a front lip. So I thought about doing the samething with my fifth Gen. And to tell you the truth, I really don't want to put on a whole body kit because I live in NYC, way to many p-holes.!!!!!!!! But I think a lip, a frankencar CatBack, and some rims would be nice for the new year.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL

i live in nyc too but i have the opposite.. whole kit with no lip

getting the lip soon though.. whenever the place i bought it from finally sends it to me.


I don't think potholes will be a problem with the body kit. My car is also lowered on coilovers, sitting quite low.. the body kit never gets in the way, except for that time we got like 18" of snow in december that sucked.

otherwise, i'm good..

and just the front lip will look alright. but i suggest getting the whole kit though.

you just might be able to pull it off with an aero lip, but if your gonna get the touring, you should get the whole kit in my opinion

Just aero front will be ok, but I think it looks so much better with the full thing. Just front might look better on 02-03's since they have stock sides.

Or, just save up and buy it piece by piece...

it'll look alright, but once you get one piece, your gonna want the whole thing later on.

i live in nyc too, was lowered pretty low with a full kit, i had no problems with pot holes. Just becareful how you go up and down driveways.

So I take it that the kit that will fit the '01s won't fit the '03's?

Yeah...I know...
