A little advice, Stay away from Online sites. Yes they are cheaper. And there cheaper for a reason. During the summer, i bought a kit from Extreme Dimensions. Which is a well know online company. Well, the kit fit didn't fit at all. The side skirts were much to short for the car. The front bumper was way to big. The back Fit with alot of mods.

Would you really trust anything with the initials "E.D."

Joking aside, I would also agree with the OEM 97+ Talon front, but the current stock bumper on the 95 Talon is sweet as it is

EDIT: I would also like to add that online purchasing is fine, as long as you know who you're dealing with. Specialty shops try on the parts on their own vehicles before they sell them in mass quantities to ensure perfect fitment. Other body kit shops online mass produce body kits for a variety of vehicles and don't have the time to ensure they all fit.

yeah they mass produce body kits with the same mold, and sometimes that mold stretches out and warps, therefore making stretched or warped looking body kits, therefore sending you an f-ed up body kit.

I can second (or third) not buying from the online sites. My side skirts were absolute shit, and the front was a little big. Also, the bottom of my front is a little warped. And this is with Urethane.

Only you can decide what looks good, everyone has their own opinions and body kits are just one of those things that you have to make the call on. Same goes with wheels.

So if I don't get it from an online site, where do I get it? Those are the only places around where I live that I've ever seen. Where would you suggest to go then?

I got mine from an online site and the fitment wasn't too bad. All the bodylines line up correctly. The problem with mine was that it sat in the box for quite awhile and it warped it somewhat, but a little TLC and she was back to good. I got mine off of www.andysautosport.com. And if you're looking for something durable, definitely get urethane. My front would have been busted up the week after I put mine on because it's so low, but the urethane is like a stock bumper and has alot of give to it. Also when they paint (if you get urethane), make sure they use a flex agent in the paint so the paint can move with the bumper and it doesn't crack right away.
