Its not worth the $...you could buy yourself one of the wild kits for the price of the OEM...only thing I went with was the front lip

-i have the oem body kit on my black ex, its smooth.
-people confuse my car for an rsx from the front.
-but i might get a downforce tec bumper to make it look more "aggressive"
-actually i'm waiting on some dyno tests on exhausts: very disappointed with dc sports- the hayame intake performed better than it.

You guys gotta keep in mind that you can get the OEM kit for half the price that the dealer charges from www.handaaccessories.com. The dealer gets $1200 for the kit, when at this website it is sold for $717. that is with tax. I might say that is a pretty good deal. The onlt thing you have to do is install the kit. With an after market kit, you can get a new one for around $550 plus, but then you still have to have it painted and installed. Then you are looking at-at least $1200 or more. I would stick with the OEM. Im getting mine next spring.[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

I have the OEM body kit but I got it with the deal of the car which was a great deal. Now I pay an extra 6 dollars a month to have it on......and I love the way it looks.

Also keep in mind OEM parts do keep the value of your car up while aftermarket drops the price a little more then OEM parts with the car. All in all can't go bad with either IMO.
