Help Me Decide which kit I have narrowed it down to the Xenon kit or the Kaminari Lip Kit.
I have a black coupe.
I dont know which one to get. I have to consider the winters cause I dont have a beater car. I usually take off most of the stuff anyways like my angel eye headlights and grill so putting the old bumper back on isnt a problem. Im thinking the Kaminari kit is nice cause I can probably keep the whole thing on all year round, where as the Xenon I should take off the front and sides for Winter, but I think the Xenon is more aggresive looking and gives the car a more original look plus it wont get ruined in the winter if I put the stock stuff back on.
The pricing is about $200 cheaper for the Xenon kit.
So what do I do?
Get the kaminari for $200 more and keep it on all year or...
Get the Xenon for a cheaper price and just keep the kit on in the nicer weather and turn my car back to the stock look for the winters???
Would it be bad to install the kit off and on during winter/summer?
Any advice is appreciated.

hey man, you're doing exactly what I am with the Tsunami kit. IMO I would go with the Xenon kit, not because its wayyyy nicer, but because you CAN take the front bumper off. The kaminari kit it CANNOT but done, and you may find that to be a problem. The good part about your dilemna is that you can't make a bad choice. Let me know what you decide on, hopefully its before that big meet in Niagra!

Rep Power: 348 That's the thing.... Bluelle, APRboy, and myself along with some other people already have the Xenon kit. If you want to get something original, I'd go for the Kaminari kit. Not many people have that kit.
But it's up to you. Which kit do you actually like better? Never mind the winters because you can always take the Kaminari kit off too, that shouldn't deter you from getting it if you like it more.

Rep Power: 0 I agree with R1 on this one... go for something different. Quite some people already have the xenon kit. Unless you want a drastic change then get the xenon but for originality, I'd go for the Kaminari.

but it's up to you...
doesn't the xenon kit bend or something like that, cause of the material it's made from?

Rep Power: 0 good input guys!
Thanks,
Im still sooo confused! I need to see a car with the kaminari lip kit in person so I can make up my mind. I saw Bluelle's Xenon kit and I loved it.
Maybe if I wait until the Canadian Autotech Show in May I might have a better idea of what I like more.
Flipped Out i like the idea of us being the kaminari brothers....one black car and one white car. hehe....it would look cool parked beside eachother.

Rep Power: 0 Depends what type of look you want more. Like said before, the Xenon kit is more aggressive looking but I love the clean and simple look of the Kaminari lip kit.
What's this Niagara meet called and when is it held? The only ones I've heard of are the Niagara crx meet and the one in Port Dalhousie
