Re: body kit good one or knock off? opinions please
I would never put fiberglass on the front of my car, just imagine how it will look aft a year of getting hit with rock going 60mph. Every kit i see looks really shitty after a little while, I'd get a urethane kit i think there is like 1 urethane kit out there.

Re: body kit good one or knock off? opinions please
Are you looking for a body kit for the GST? I would get your other car painted first and just do show on that one, go on the other one. Body kits dont seem to do anything but make ricers intimidated, get broken, and add weight. Besides, theres nothing better looking on the street than a 97-99 Eclipse anyway.

Re: body kit good one or knock off? opinions please
The shipping on that ebay one is more than the kit itself
 2gb is the only way to go IMO with a nice lip

 A friend that I worked with had a 1997 Mitsu GSX and we had a vote at work, then we went to the Mall of Georgia and I won hands down. No body kits or any of that. We were completely stock. His is red and mine is black.Don't get me wrong, I like the mitsu. DSM's RULE! But I am biased as well I guess

Re: body kit good one or knock off? opinions please
Junk. First of all I agree with the consensus of urethane over fiberglass (I have urethane and I love it). I got my kit off e-bay and we had to do quite a bit of fabrication and a shitload of hours of fitment to make it look decent. Some companies are better than others though. If I were you, I'd order one through andysautosport.com. Ive had great experience with them and fitment on my new kit is excellent.
