Kit or Springs

What do y'all think looks better? TL with bodykit no springs or TL with a springs no bodykit. I would get both, but I go skiing alot. I'm concerned it won't make it through some roads because of clearance.

For some reason, I think that the ABP needs a kit. It's a really sporty color and I think it goes perfectly with it.

Get springs. It'll get rid of the gap. But I don't know how it will be driving in snow.

Kit

KIT...KIT...KIT! I got the body kit installed and it looks great! I'd go with the kit first, but that's my opinion...

He does have pics of the car w/o the springs b/c he got the kit about 6 months before he lowered it. If you can find those you can get an idea of how it looked. I for one voted for the kit with no springs. Adding springs will make it look hot, but the kit makes it look sweet too... and you're handling and ride aren't affected!!

Keep in mind when comparing those two pics that the top car doesn't have a rear spoiler either.

I'd say get the springs and the rear spoiler.

Get the kit and then when you sick of the gap, get the springs. Here is a pic of my car with a kit only.
