body kit vs. bumpers

I want to do something to change my hatch's look soon, And was thinking about painting the bumpers to match the stock color powder coating the steel rimz white and puttin' coilovers on and lowering it as low as i could get it.
Would this be a cool look or should i wait and get a bodykit and new rimz? And someone said in another thread that steeliez and droped would look pretty sweet. I thought it might look good.

It's all personal preference. Personally, as long as you paint your bumpers right, I think it'll look really good.

I'm also a fan of body kits, although some on this board are not. You can always split the difference and throw a JDM front end on your car. It looks alot cooler than USDM stock, but it's nowhere near an aggressive change as a body kit is.

Have fun, post pics, good luck!

it comes down to the allmighty dollar. if you wana paint, i imagine that is a bit cheaper then a body kit although i dont know for sure. The body kit will give you a "unique" look over a stock car although you might be one of a thousand in your area with that same body kit so its really up to you. depends on what kinda body kit your looking at getting and such. lots of options out there, and only you can deciede really.
