yea, the back does make it look like the max has a fat ***, but maybe it'll look different when its painted.

I really like the sorana kit, it looks sweet. The kit on your car will look awesome after you get it painted.

i just went threw the process of doing a front end conversion and getting a stillin front lip about 3 months ago, it would have been a waste of time to put the front on plus then i would have to pay for that to get painted when i have a freshly painted front already.

Sarona Front Bumper

PioPremier, I'll take that front bumper off your hands for $350. E-mail me and let me know if that's OK. Anthony.Burns@Fairchild.af.mil

Good job on keeping the stillen front, the sarona front will make yr max looks like a snowplowing truck.

FAT A$$ j/k........
i think your car will look just as good as Shadows car. Its something about champagne on body kits that makes the car look more expensive.

VERY good choice leaving the front end off, i hate the Sarona front clip.
The Stillen is definitly the way to go especially with a 97 convertion too

keep up the good work!! I love it

thanks for all the compliments guys, as far as the rear bumper looking alittle round or bubbly, it does take some getting use to but after awhile it seems to blend in with the rest of the car, i love the side skirts and i don't know if you can tell or not but in the side pic i cut up a trenz grill and filled the opening to match my front grill instead of the mesh it came with. I hope to get it painted soon and ill post some more pic. BTW-TJ2000 did you get your bumper yet?

my excuse is the same excep i dont have the stillen yet, also i want urethane in the front bc its most likely to get scraped and i dont want to risk it breaking, plus stillen front looks great with the sides

Stillen looks more like a snowplow that the sarona does. The Sarona curves down and has angles to it, the Stillen is totally flat on the bottom. It sort of just hangs below the front bumper, I always thought it looked much more like a snowplow. The Sarona actually flows instead of looking like and attachment. If you look at the bumper closely, it's actually shorter than the factory one, the rear is shorter also so the car looks more compact.
