2nd gen body mods

I was thinking about finding a wide body kit for my car, but was kind of worried about sinking too much money into it, since it's got 140k. and while i'm at it, any cheap tricks to more power besides cutting the cats?

Umm

What is a "ground kit?" as in a Body mod, or an electrical ground? i saw a wide body kit for 200 bucks or so a while ago, is that a good price?

this only had the rear fenders i think, but it was like 230 or something, but that was about three months ago that i saw that i didn't buy it because i'm in college, and that kind of crimps my budget. It might have been 230 a peice, but i don't think so

Those over fenders are starting to grow on me. If I were to go with any body mods that would be one I'd start with.

where'd you get that pic

That car looks exactly like one that was racing at the rose cup in Portland Oregon a while ago, where'd you get that pic from. if it's the same car, it's pretty quick.
