I'm getting stressed . I've been looking for a body kit for atleast 6 months now. Nothing is really catching my eye. I love the BC rear bumper, and BC front is kinda cool. I'm leaning more towards a lip kit now, but even those are hard to find. I've seen one that I love, it's on Qveon's car but i don't know the name of it. I like the Wing West RS kit but the rear bumper is horrible. There big mouth front is okay, but i'm not very fond of the rest of the kit. Anywho, i've thrown some things out there that I like, is there anybody out there that can throw some more suggestions and maybe places to get them at good prices...???
Here is my opinion (mainly because It's what I finally decided on, after about 4 years of figuring out kit options)...
I am not a big fan of full bumper replacements, etc. because they are usually of lower quality than OE bumpers....so...
Front: Accord Type R Lip
Sides: Wings West
Rear: Accord OE rear lip
All of these pieces line up very well with each other, it gives the 4th gen a very aggressive stance without having all these random air ducts in the front or a huge bulging rear bumper.
Also, piecing this together would cost less than getting a body kit.

I decided while I was at work that a lip was the way to go. I just can't do the body kit, it takes a way from the ludes aggressive stand to modify the front bumper that much, plus unless you get urethane you're probably gonna get a poor quality product. Thanks for the help guys!
I think I just did it. I'm not sure yet, but I think i found the one. Tell me what you think about this. Hiro Front lip and sides, BW rear??? Thinkin' about the whole Hiro kit, but i've always like the BW rear. plus the Hiro rear sides kinda throw me off. I hate when a car sits that low in the front and so high in the back.
Hiro kit is definatley nice, I also like the full kaminari kit because it accents the 'lude instead of working against it....however I'm not a fan of fiberglass on the front....so substitute the Accord Type R front lip, w/ the kaminari sides/rear, and whoala.....see sig

kaminari lip kit is very good and u dont see too many of them. the fiberglass isnt as big of a deal with them bc they dont do the cheap thin stuff like most body or lip kits off ebay or such places. I've had mine on for 2 years. I'm an inch lower and I've scraped many, many times without any cracking issues at all. They lip is very think and strong. If you were to drive it in winter it might be different, but winter could destroy any kit. I'll try to post pics of what the kit really looks like in the rides section.
I'm not sure if i'm going to regret this or not, but i ended up going with the Hiro front and sides, and the BW Rear. The Hiro is going to be really really low. Hopefully on 18's i might not need to lower the car at all and i'll possibly negate all clearance issues. Any thoughts?

clearance of the hiro: go on honda-tech.com and in the 4th gen pics thread there is a guy that has trimmed his hiro for clearance reasons (car looks a lot like Qveon's, but its not) still looks good even trimmed
