Default body kit or drop kit

okay so first im going to make my ride race ready because i want to play the part, but i also want to look the part so i was thinking my mitsubishi eclipse is already kinda low with a spoiler (that im keeping) which means im probably going to go with either a body kit (vielside etc) or i could just drop it an inch like my neighbor, keep in mind though im probably going to go with 17" or 18" rims and low profile tires, so what should it be body kit or drop kit.

no body kits. The stock body on a 2g is good.

Yes sir.....
2Gs already have a kit...albeit a stock body kit, but a body kit nonetheless
Keep it stock and lower it. The Eclipse already looks the part, all you really have to do is lower it just a bit and it will look the part even more.

Hell, someone said my Avenger looked fast, lol....hey, they do damnit!
Stock body and lowered..oh and crappy rims....that's what I have to look the part...that's all you need
