I have a 94 celica gt hatchback. I was recently in an accident and i messed up the hood and bumper. I'm buying a carbon fiber hood and im going to get a c-5 front bumper and vader side skirts. But im trying to figure out if i can leave the rear bumper on the car because its in great condition. I was just concerned about the front and sides of the car looking lower than the back and making the car look awkward. I'm gonna put some eibach sportline springs that will lower it 1.5" and i dont want the front bumper to hit some speed bumps either. Maybe someone has a body kit with just the front bumper and side skirts and a stock rear bumper that could let me know how it looks or a picture of it, or maybe how much lower a vader rear bumper is than the stock one?

if you can afford it buy a zapt... those bumpers are nice but rare and expensive, but as long as yours is nice get extensisons and leave it

lower + kit = loooow... you will hit speedbumps... you might need a bigger tire and a bigger rim... 17"

Yeah i got bigger rims, i got 17" rims on it, but i think its still the same size because the tire is just smaller, i got fusion zri 225/40/17 tires, so it wouldnt matter unless i got the bigger tires like you said. I'll probably get a lip or something for the back like you said
