Thanks guys! My car photos are below. Keep in mind I did all the work myself. From the body kit to the paint to the custom headlights, it was all me. Im up for any comments/tips/suggestions.

interesting rear lip. not a fan of the front kit but still looks good. i always thought those bumpers used supra bumper lights like the TRd kit

The rear lip I found laying in a junkyard so I decided to use it to give the rear a unique look. Im not a fan of the huge rear bumpers or wide side skirts. Just wanted to keep it smooth. Interesting that you brought up the front bumper because Im saving up for the import fighter bumper which I will be ordering next month. I had the Z24 bumper but needed something with an aftermarket look for my taste. I appreciate your input.

I like what you have done with the headlights. Import fighter front will look good on there. Id lose the vent visors if it were my car but its not lol so to each there own.
Your coner light is missing a peice too but im sure you know

nice... and i hate how the 95-99 corner lights always seem to brake on the corners like that. i replaced one and two days later it broke again lol . and good choice on the If front. cant go wrong with that.

I don't hate it. Never seen that front before.

Whats the visor thats way to small? That looks kinda silly.

Lol Yeah I noticed the corner light broke a little. I put these OEM ones back on and ditched the clear ones. Idk why but OEM lights look good on modified J Bodies. Im not going back to the clear ones, they give a rather ricey look in my opinion. As for the visors, maybe Ill remove them for good after I go 2 tone with gloss black on top.

Not bad overall. Not a fan of the front, but the IF will look perfect on there. I'd probably replace the rear with an IF or an 03+ LS Sport at some point to match. The vinyl strip at the top of the windshield should be either black (which I think would look best), or on the outside, so the white runs all the way across, rather than being outlined by the thick black on the windshield. Pretty clean looking car, though!

Thanks Quiklilcav, speaking of rear bumper, Ive always wondered if the 03+ rear bumpers will fit a 97'. If minor modification is needed Ill do it. Ive done modifications to make the side skirts and rear lip fit. Also by any chance will a 00-02 front bumper fit? I love the look of them with the lip!

i like what you've got going on. I respect your work b/c you say you've done it yourself just as i have. My car has only been in the shop to be fixed where i had my wreck, other than that everything else was done in my garage including motor swap much like all the rest of the guys on the org. I used to have the windvisors and the banner on the front window as well and liked the overall look alot better after i took them off. With the 03+ bumper fitment, only thing i had to do was trim out some of the plastic from the reinforcement to clear for the license plate area. other than that its a direct bolt up. Good luck and keep us updated.

Thanks for the tip 20cavy02! Im going to start looking for one of those bumpers ASAP. Your car is very clean! Your front bumper is the one that I really like with that lip spoiler.

2nd gens are pre1995. Every J after(and including)1995 is a 3rd gen.

I actually like that front bumper for the most part. IT just looks good. id say lose the side moldings completely, but not sure if you can since the age of the paint.

what did you do to the tail lights? are they stock but lense removed? they look different, and i do like the wheels on it as well.

i had first thought that u had fitted a neon bumper on the front, but its not! lol. i agree w/ what everyone above me have said! ditch the vinyl, paint mirrors and handles, lose the door molding. maybe debadge the trunk?

this car has its OWN look to it! i say leave everything else!
