Default exterior upgrades :)

Ive been thinking about adding parts to my S. right now i have a stock 2006 silverstone s2000. the upgrades i want to invest first are cosmetics, the exterior of the car i was thinking of putting a spoiler on the rear just for looks and i think the CR wing looks nice i know some hate on the wing but i think it really does look best on a S . the other parts i want to install on the car is a front spoiler, my first choice is investing on a OEM under body spoiler. my other choice would be a INGS complete AERO kit; since i wanted to also install the INGS side skirts. i dont really know what i should do? since if i get the CR wing, INGS side skirt and the OEM front spoiler i would have extra cash in my pocket for other upgrades like wheels, or engine mods. or should i just blow it now and get the CR wing and the whole INGS AERO set (which is the front, side, and rear)? any info on parts or your Opinion will be greatly appreciated.

thanks

set up #1: CR wing,INGS side skirt, OEM front spoiler
set up #2: CR wing, INGS full Aero kit

unless you plan on lowering your car and buying wheels, go with the oem front lip and cr wing. i agree with taka, full body kits do not look good on stock wheels.

Well not everyone can afford everything in one crack. Sure alot of times it does look a little odd because full kits usually make the body a little more agressive and the oem wheels are usually on the plain side. But maybe he likes the stock wheels, or he wants to do the rims after for whatever reason.

oh and to answer the question, i think the ings kit with a cr wing would look waaaaayyy dope.

paint your stock wheels yellow...problem solved.. i can help you. INGS rear bumper is very tasteful. It looks like it could be stock which is sideskirts..meh.. they always looked tacked on to me, the never really flow. i like stock front bumpers just fine.. but the INGS looks okay. AMUSE front bumper is the nicest looking after market front IMO

yea the amuse is nice! it looks stock. otherwise an ap2 bumper with that apr lip is a close second. and maybe an ASM bumper 3rd. they all look similar

thanks for the input guys, at least no one is flammin on the CR wing lol but yeah i think ill change the rims once i have the bodykit. i have money on reserve for upgrades so its not that big of a deal but i like the help that everyone is giving me. i still have time to decide so ill take everyones advice.

thanks

hard decision. if your set on the INGS kit, get the front too. I think the CR wing and an OEM lip looks more on the clean side tho.

BTW, if your going to buy an OEM lip, we should try to get a group buy going. Myself and another member from hawaii wants one. At least we could save on shipping
