is it just me or do the svt kits look just a little bit better on the pre 98? something about the big headlights and long reflector on the back, not that i wouldnt give both my n$%ts to have a real svt

I have to agree, the pre-98's look really tight w/ the front bumper and bodykit. but of course, my opinion is biased...

The bottom contour on micah's front bumpers don't quite line up right with the rest of the SVT kit... That has been bugging the crap out of me, seems to be aimed down a bit....

you mean the corner,at the bottom of the wheel well? i noticed that to, but didnt have a true svt bumper to compare it to, i want the mirko splitter, he says that they will fit, when i bought it from him he tried to show me what the splitter would look like but it would go on right.......?

Yeah, but it does not effect my satisfaction of the bumper whatsoever, I love it. I knew when I bought it that there would be plenty of work involved, the Mirko splitter was not easy to fit... but yeah.....

Yeah, the crease/contour on the sides of the bumper don't line up to the rest of the car, but on mine it doesn't angle down, it's perfectly straight, but it is a tad lower but at least it's straight. Besides, it's not noticable, at least to me it isn't. Now maybe if mine DID angle down like I've seen on some others, then maybe I'd be a little perturbed...
