Really want a body kit, but my 99 cougar is approaching 90k miles

[mixdamike]

I've had my 99 cougar v6 for over a year now, and really want a body kit. I have found some great deals on ebay as far as kits, and found one i really like but theres a problem.
My cougar is approaching the 90k mile mark and im not sure if investing in a body kit is such a great idea. I'm wanting to keep this car as long a possible because i love it, but i dont know how long it will hold up without having major problems.
Any feedback would be most helpful!

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!
i have a 99 with 80k on it and it spends more time at the dealer than in my driveway. Not little crap either. Save it for a new Focus SVT or something. Also there are very few companies making parts for them anymore so finding parts is always a joy.

There is a ton of aftermarket for the cougar! Bodykits especially! Aesthetically, you name it, they have it for the latest gen cougar. Now performance wise, the duratec isnt like a mustang motor, but there certainly is a great selection. (i.e turbo kit, vortech s/c, cams, headers, pnp heads, pistons, rods, plenty of exhaust and intake kits, etc)

Heres the list of bodykits available that fit your 99 model. There are more available then this, but i just pasted the ones that fit your year.:

99-02 Aerogear Battle Series Kit
99-02 Aerogear Hy-Bryd 2 Series Kit
99-02 Aerogear Millennium 8 Piece Wide Body Kit

Thanx for the relpies. I have looked at all the body kit options at customcougars.com and really like a lot of them. I still dont know if im going to bother with it because of my mileage though.
Thanks again
