Can't really give you an opinion without pics. You can ask for the popular opinion but ultimately you gotta make it yourself. Hows it mounted, if it has a bunch screws holding it in place once removed you'll have a bunch of screw holes and it'll look like ****.

I know I know I'm not at home to post pictures of it. They actually came from factory so I don't really know havent really looked into it, but I read from a couple of members who have done it on here, and they just filled in the holes. So I don't think that should be a problem.

to be honest i've never been a fan of the kits but i think with the right wheels and stance you could pull it off. plus when you take it off i believe you'll have some holes to fill

Ahhh so I decided to take them off. They should be off with in a couple of weeks. I'll look into the holes part a little bit more soon.

Thanks guys!

If I end up selling them, what's a good price?

I'm confused to what ground effects are on there. You said he kept it stock.

Was it a Z28 with an RS body package or something?
