I have a 90 GSX :dsm: and i wanted some opinions. Should I keep it a sleeper and pull all the decals off or go with a body kit and wing ( look like a all show and no go car). The body kit i was thinking of was a drift all the way around ... and take the stock wing off and put a small one on there .. Thanks
 
well man u know about 80% of people are sleeper b/c they cant think for themselves and let other people tell them what they like you do what u want if u want performace go sleeper if u want kit car go kit car if u want both go both me, i like the sleeper but kit cars arent bad :dsm:
 
i want to trick ppl but with the bodykit and wing , i only have to pay 150$ for it and i got the rest paid for and a paint job for it all set up

If you have a GSX, I'm willing to bet everyone would say make it a sleeper. I say take advantage of that AWD and turn into a beast, rather than ricing it up and leaving all that potential untouched. :thumb:
 
Well, it's your car so why don't you do what you want to do to it.. I like the OEM looks, but later on down the road, I will be investing in a mix/match kit and wing to make it represent my thinking and my styling.

I wish people would think for themselves and do what they want to do with their car.
 
i agree with both, but there arent really any good kits for the 1g. us 2gers have it easy when it comes to things of the exterior type.

for a 1g i would lower it about an inch and a half, depending on the color, black or white with bronze rims looks the best, gives it that rally/tuner look to it, while still looking really good and clean.

and i really hate the sleeper look. some people just dont have imagination.
 
Personally I like body kits on 1G's, I like the Combat one and the Drift kit as well, but they are kind of extreme... but it all depends on what you like.... :thumb: :dsm:
 
IMO i'd go with the sleeper look. 1Gs really don't look "right" with body kits. Instead of spending the money on that buy some perf. parts.
 
I say body kit...I like the way every ricer thinks I am a ricer because I have a bosy kit ect. untill they here that spool and watch my AWD launch, I did all the go and am now working on the show.

Also i like the fact that i have removed all decals form the car so even the dsm guys dont know im AWD unless they look at the rear hehe.
