Need help w/ STILLEN BODY KIT for 2k2 SE

I'll be purchasing a 2002 SE in about 2 weeks. Shortly after I'd like to add the full Stillen Aero kit (Part# 108270 on the Stillen site). When I spoke with one of the Stillen representatives, he told me that the front fascia doesn't quite fit or hangs to low. He said I'd have to substitute the usual front fascia with the 'Big Mouth' version (Part# 108209). I didn't think the body style changed AT ALL from the 2001 model.

So I have a couple of questions:
1- Has anyone installed this Aero Kit and experienced the problem the Stillen representative mentioned?
2- If I have to go with the 'Big Mouth' version, will the front look weird if I don't install the 5" fogs?


Thanks

P.S. Looking forward to all your future suggestions as I continue to mod my new MAX both in and out.

The 2K2 front bumper has changed from 2K1. That's why he said the front will not fit correctly. The Big Mouth version is not to my liking. Other opinions may differ.

jkratzer - That's part of my problem. I'm not that crazy about the 'Big Mouth' front either... don't hate it though. But thanks for the confirm on the 2k2 front end.

tapwr3000 - Thanks for the heads up. If you get any further notice on those new kits I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know.

Thanks again guys
