Body kit questions

I have the Stillen kit(not installed) and after seeing it on another 95 I have come to the conclusion that the back section of it is just too plain. Does anyone have the Sarona back bumper on their car with the stillen side skirts and front lip? I was wondering how that setup would look. From a side view does the side skirt and back bumper look unbalanced?? Hope i'm making sense.

It would look very unbalanced. The Sarona rear is round and "bubbly" while the Stillen front is "molded" onto the bumper and is not as wild as the Sarona kit.

At one point I had the same setup in mind (stillen for front and side, and sarona in the back) But that was just a thought, I agree with you though that the stillen back could use a bit more.....appeal..? But what do I know... I don't own a kit...yet!

Im still waiting for shadow to finnish his kit so I can decide if I should either got the rest of the stillen or wait for his kit. I already have the stillen lip and I like how the stillen sides look so Im just waiting to see how his kit will turn out even though I dont like fiberglass parts.

Well with that opinion I'm leaning towards selling my stillen kit and getting the Sarona but even though it looks good I've heard horror stories about fitment problems.

My car was in an accident recently and my body shop is gonna throw the kit on as they do the repairs on the car to save me money. Guess i'll just buy the Sarona back and try it for myself. If I don't like it than I'll just sell the stillen kit and buy the rest of the Sarona. I'll post pics of the project for you guys incase any of you had a similar idea.
