    i am undecided whether i should lower my car aswell as fit a vtr bodykit? or just lower it..?

    how much in total is it to fit, paint and buy the whole body kit?

    depends on the shop mate. the kit can be picked up fairly cheap second hand, and if its in your colour your onto a winner.

    the kit fitting can be a bit of a mission, the rear archs need trimming, you dont have all the mount holes on your quaters, doors and wings for the kit, so it all needs bonding on, or holes drilled. you could get vtr archs to make the job a little easier up the front.

    for a full kit spray and fit, you'd be looking around £700 for a top job.

    please lose the light masks tho please

    yea i was gonna say first of all loose the light masks and the sticker in the rear window and yea obv its always gonna look better with a vt kit imo to do it cheap find one in your colour of go for two tone but make sure tis a colour which matches and i think the only colour u can get away with will be black so unless ur willing to pay a bit i wouldnt bother how old are u? most people can get decent insurance when they are 18 on a vtr and my vtr only cost £750 so unless u need a small engine or u can kit it for cheap just buy a vtr
