Body Kits

Why is it that the clear corners are non-existant on the body kits? What do I do, cut a hole in it for them???

Sorry, those sites don't come up correctly. Just click on body kits, any of the 96-97 accords or the 97 cl. Will the accord kits fit though- only a 4-door, i've heard, but I wanted to check. And as for you saiko, I'm sorry I like to check on things before I buy them. You can go ahead and roll your eyes all you like, but you can kiss my ass on your way outta my thread.

you wont get the accord full bumper body kit to be fitted onto the cl without extensive bodywork (depending on what you're doing).

a full body kit is less than a lip kit w/ side skirts, but like $400

Above, but = by*
you think the body kits look like ass, correct? If so, I completely agree, but it wouldn't kill me to get new bumpers either. Since I keep my bra on the car all the time, the paint under it is absolutely horrid and my back bumper's a little off b/c I got hit.

why pay $400 to make your car look like ass? just get a front lip for now and save up for sides/rear skirt

Looks like ass, and it's cheaper to buy because they're cheap plastic bumpers, but modifying them to fit is way more $$ than it's worth, and will cost way more in the long run.

ok, i wont start the flame war, just please dont get the kit. Honestly, i ruins the lines of the vehicle, and just doesnt even look right at all. Unfortunately, yeah, it's more expensive to get the lip and custom work, but our cars dont really need a kit IMO. And i'm guessing you dont know anyone that could fix your paint for you. But getting that kit, you're gonna spend extra $$$ on getting it fitted properly, getting it painted. Better off going with a ww lip and call it a day. If you have a shop put it on, most times they'll give you a break on other work, they've already got you there, so its easy when they have the paint already made, instead of 2 trips.
