you could drive to miami and give him your car and have him put a widebody kit on ($3500), personally i think the kit looks sweet...other than that there isnt much else...there is a wings west front air dam or you could buy someones custom kit...or you could make your own custom kit

T Crown80..the other kit is the Black widow kit II.. most people on this forum dont like the kit..i think the front is ok, the sides are fine..but the back is ugly. good luck tho man.. there is a guy in VA that'll make u a kit for about $2000 in northern VA.. good luck..

both kits take away from the curves of the CL and make the front and rear look "flat"

dont invest in such a POS kit that is mass produced and poorly made

buy something nice, mold it and youve got yourself a original kit

Is your car lowered? If not I wouldn't put rims and a body kit on until you do that.....unlowered cars with rims look , even more so when they have a body kit.

the reason i dont lower mine is cause of my lip kit i dont know how much i can go lower until i mold everything and get everything the right height


i think this is the proper way to do it since if you put the body kit on you dont know how much you can drop it
