ah, bodykit. Then paint. Then chip the front bumper,(repaint) ---- dude, your never gonna get a turbo.

I guess my vote goes to the turbo I mean, you wouldn't really go to homemadebodykit.com and ask if you should get the turbo first, would you?

Like they all said, ---- the kit, go for the turbo. I mean, what good is all show, no go? Maybe it'll pull some bush at first, but it'll be slower than your mom's oldsmobile.

heres a tip for you. Buy your body kit and install it yourself. You will save so much money putting it on yourself and it's easy as hell. I have a body kit on my car and I will never give up my body kit. Just make sure you do it right the first time and dont ---- around. Sand the kit down real good. The slap your turbo on and have fun. I love when people roll up to me thinking my ---- is just a car with a body kit and they get smoked bad, definetly put the kit on. If you like to race put the kit on, everybody tries to race you when you have it on.

Lol, the post was "SHOULD I BYE A BODY KIT OR NOT?" not "SHOULD I INSTALL IT MYSELF".

If you cannot install your own body kit then your a dumbass.

go for the turbo. speed it way tighter!! it may cost more and the bosy kit may look nicer NOW. but good things take time. I made the mistake of spending all my money on shaving everything on my stupid civic, when i could of had a bad *** turbo kit by now.

TURBO FIRST LOOK SECOND

u dont even need a body kit, the 2g crx have great body lines stock. just do ur turbo, throw on some nice springs and reasonably light wheels (15"?) and go to town.

or, buy yourself a b16 head and make a ls/vtec. (new option, woot!)

if that 300 for the ww kit is not gonna last for awhile (make sure its urethane or whatever the flexible stuff is) it has lifetime warrenty if its WW and buy it. I would get the turbo and just wait on installing the kit tho unless u got the money for paint. I got my turbo kit for like 250 bucks for everything including afc hack and 450 injectors 2.5 in charge pipes good cond t3 turbo hf manifold and adapter plate (from BmC racing verry nice plate!) its not installed but all i need is oil lines and a bigger intercooler i have eclipse side mount but you can make a custom kit really cheap if you take your time and look hard.
