Sounds like you've got some nice changes coming. Nice to see the body kit removal, should look good with some nice fat tires and rims out back.

the car loooks great both before and without the kit. that color is pure perfection.

i decided to remove part of the kit too, but i went in a different direction. i like the way the GFX look on the sides and rear, not a huge fan of the front, by i can live with it. but i NEVER really like the spoiler, so i too that off before getting it repainted a few months back. i like it a lot more nowl.

I would of liked the ground effects more if it would have blended into the body better, like the cme valance panel does. I don't know why someone didn't design something that really looked like it belonged on the car, not like a generic kit that could bolt up to many different models. The trans am's for example, just look right.
