you dont really need the Front bumper, but you REALLY need the back one, looks stupid without it.

nah,because even if you just have the sides and rear,when you look at the car from the side,the front bumper sits so much higher looking like you just ran over curb or something. SE skirts go with any set up,stock or aftermarket.

True I was driving on the high way and I saw a Contiqe with SVT sides and regular front and back bumpers. Its looked SO bad!!! SVT side skirts rock the are the best!
If you have the full kit!
You really dont even need a full SVT kit to make the SVT skirts look good on a pre98. Get the SVT rear bumper and side skirts, dump the suspension and inch and you have one HOT looking tour.

I'm either doing one of those,or a molded SVT front. Most like the mirko,it'll be cheaper.
