Looking at getting a body kit and hood sometime in July. But i am not sure which one. I was looking at the RK Sport kit. But i also like the GM kit, but not the price. Any suggestions from anyone would greatly be appreciated.
I like all of them.Just remember,it takes a few hours of fitment to get everything lined up,you have to factor that into cost,unless you do it yourself.Nothing is easy.But the end result is great.I like the psycho Vibe kit,like damronjr's.I think that's the nicest kit available.Not sure if it's the same as the rk sport.We don't have many options when it comes to kits.The GM one is too expensive.Either way you go,it will look good.http://www.street-graffiti.com/Index1.htm

Im not worried about getting it fit and the cost to paint it. I used to have a neon and i went through 4 paint jobs in a year, and if i would of paid for all of them it would have costed me $15000 over the year. that is the benefit of knowing people. I will be getting it molded in and a whole new paint job.
I'm not sure the RKSport kit is even really available, despite what you might see on some sites. Best to call them and make sure it was even ever produced as I was bugging them about that for a while and never got anywhere. The kit I have is cool, and the GM kit is great, but it'll cost you IF you can find one. Keep us posted!Oh, and it must be nice "to know people!"

I like the GM kit... but the Aerogear on has grown on me, too. The RKSport kit looks except for the rear bumper The best looking hood IMO is the JSP carbon fiber one then the SLP ram-air hood (not sure if they still make it or not)
I have contacted RK and they say that they do have the kits. But i am trying to decide if i should do a kit with hood and just paint it silver like it is or get a hood (not carbon fiber) and the mid wing and then do a custom paint job. i am just worried about damaging the kit.

well my neon was lowered 2 inches with a kaminari kit, so i am used to driving lower to the ground. but now i travel alot and it worries me more. that is why i am leaning towards the hood with mid wing and a custom paint job. but i need to think of some kind of off the wall paint job.

However, even so, I have jacked up my bumpers by not being high enough when I needed to be, and a lot of times it is unexpected or unseen things that catch you off-guard!

yeah most likely i am going with the paint job. just have to think of something. not really looking for something too wild, but also not basic. I am gonna keep the silver and add some black into it.
