Need opinon on rear body kit

I'm currently in the process of doing the 97 rear end conversion but I'm finding it hard to find used stillen rear valences. So I was thinking about just going with the full Sarona rear bumper so I won't have to worry about getting a rear bumper or the valences. I saw phatmax97 had this setup and it seemed to look ok on his car and I'm thinking it would look better on mine because I have a dark car. I would really prefer to have the stillen rear valences with a normal rear bumper but I'm thinking that to get the one piece bumper is more cost effective. All opinions and suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. Mike.

I think that set up would look nice. Now all you have to do is sell me the rear pieces from your car.

Well I don't like the Skyline rear at all but I think the Sarona rear would look nice also. For anyone who doesn't know what it may look like look at phatmax97 homepage and tell me what you think.

I liked the sarona bumper out of all the ones ive seen so far, the only thing i dont like about it is that it doesnt match that little accent on the back of the rear fender. There is a little bend or styling in the metal of the car that matches up with the stock bumper on the sarona it doesnt seem to match up.

The new sarona bumper version 2 has the matching bend thing but it also has the dual exhaust style which i dont like.
