Just want to know where a good place to buy one and if anybody has one how does it fit.Also what will it run me? Dont it fit a 97-99, if so i will have to get the 97-99 front end and rear
 
the Q kit is made for the 97-99 but you can make it fit the earlier models too since its made of eleven different pieces,you just customfit the front parts to your bumper.

Prices I have seen from 1200 up to 2000dollars so check around good before you buy. I have heard though that the quality of htese kits arent too good so better check into that before you buy.
 
is it just me or does it look like you have to have 10" wide rims to make that kit look at all good? i was going to get it at one time but the more i looked the more i saw that a regular sized wheel would look ghey as fúck.. maybe im wrong
 
yuore right...stock wheels wouldlook weird as hell on the car with that kit.You need to space out the wheels or get wider rims.Offset can be different to make them fit but it may require some rebuildingof the suspension ..I dont really know.
 
I wouldn't go for that kit. There are SO many different parts to it, that you'll probably end up paying over 1,000 to get it molded on. Then you have to paint it and all that. Its too much money, i think.
 
whats the difference with the Q kit and Blitz? i see a little bit of a groove in the front bumper over the tire, but thats about it?
 
Yeah, I wanted to know about it too, I chatted with you once on AOL quwhees99, but got disconnected. Anyways, I wanted to know if it makes the car any lower (are the sideskirts and front underlip that thick, and how much it is lower than stock)
 
yeah it makes it lower.

umm you'll have 1 3/4 - 2 inch clearance....so yeah...i barely drive places i don't know when i take my car. california has a lot of speed bumps, etc. driving at an angle does help at times but then again the front bumper sticks out more than most kits...so you'll more than likely chip it...like i have.

anything else?
 
Well, you installed it on a 97-99, but I have a 95-96 which I know is higher, so what I'm guessing is, my clearance won't be the same as yours. However, I'm wondering if the clearance difference is because of the bumper and side skirt differences in the two models, or if there's any suspension differences. Is your car dropped at all? Or stock height.
 
Quwhees99, Can you give any insight as to how the gas the door is mounted on your car? Just a hinge and a latch of some kind? I am not sure if I want to go with the fiberglass door that is provided or glass it over and put in a 3G door or relocate the filler all together. Any help is appreciated.
