I say depends on what you are going for. If you want the lo-key semi-stealthy hotness for yourself and others to appreciate....go with the type-r lip kit. If you want to go for the showey get-points-and-win-shows look...go with the kaminari.

This is a dilemma I'm facing with myself right now. I've been trying to decide for the past month if I want to do the Type B lip kit or the Kaminari lip kit on my SSM.

^^thanx.

i mean don't get me wrong, you can get props at shows with a lo-key kit, but if you really wanna win you gotta go all out....unfortunately that is just the way they are. i'm thinking f*** it though and i might just get my type b front, type b rear, and AERO sides. good luck on your decisions.

i think the aero kit looks real nice on SSMs, but its so damn expensive. You could go with the Tsunami kit, its urethane and not too flashy.

i know and i'd prolly just get the aero sides. the tsunami kit would be my first choice with the lip and not the front bumper, but it is pretty damn expensive too.

i'm usually only a fan of lip kits, but that would have to be my favorite "full" kit. only problem for me is that it is fiberglass, not urethane. not a bad choice though and reasonably priced.

Why not a custom kit? Personally, I've pretty much decided on Type B front lip, Aero sides, and OEM rear. I think the OEM rear looks very clean. Type R looks good, too.

The Kaminari is just too crazy sometimes.

yeah the type b front and aero sides are definitely hot together, but the oem rear to me is just a little too plain. maybe a wwg5 rear might set it off, overkill you think? what about the tsunami rear?

I just don't like the fins coming down in the back. If that's your style, then the WWG5 is closest to OEM = cleanest IMO.
