Rep Power: 296 Kaminari or Xenon
Well its almost time to buy my body kit/lip kit and i was still haven't decided on which one to get. I like the Kaminari Lip Kit, and the Xenon Body kit. But i can't seem to decide on what to get. My car is going to be lowered in the next week so i need to decide on a body kit to put on. I have a 2002 Rallye Red 2DR with 18" Konig Prophets Opal. Let me know what everyone thinks. Also on the Xenon Kit, I would paint all the mesh black so that i don't have a silver mesh backing.
They are both about the same amount, give or take 10 or 20 dollars.

Rep Power: 285 If you plan on putting your car back to stock in the winter then I would go with Xenon because of the front bumper replacement. You just take off the bumper and throw the stock one back on.
Also, I dont know why people consider the Xenon kit to be a full body kit..... the sides attach to the car just like any sides from any lip kit. The rear is also just a lip.... the only thing thats not a lip is a front bumper which IMO opinion is even easier to install and take off.

Rep Power: 296 Still haven't decided, i wish there was someone on here with the kit on rallye red would have a good picture so i can tell if i like it or not, there was one but i can't get a good sense if i like it or not, too bad i can't see any in person. If i did get the Xenon i would leave the mesh inside the front grill black, iunno yet, I'm leaning more to Kaminari though.
