Is it a bad idea to buy just the front bumper part of a body kit without the side skirts and rear bumper rather then install them all at once. Or will the different heights of the stock side skirt with the MS front bumper look ridiculous.

There are some pictures on this forum with only the MS front. Altspace is one of them. I honestly like the whole kit. Some people don't. It's a preference thing.

i bought the front and sides together, but mounted the front by myself and got the sides professionally mounted...so the front was on for a couple months before i saved up money for the install of the sides. so....it didn't look bad by any means, but definitely has a "bucktooth" look to it!

I looked at altspace's pictures... seems fine but im sure its a little different in real life. If I get the front I'll probably end up getting the sides eventually I just don't want it to look too awkward.

it doesnt look bad. and if you plan on getting the sides later anyways why not get it in stages...front to back

Thx guys. Honestly you have to see it in person to really judge. I love the look, however I do plan to buy the MS side skirts to match soon.

Here's my blog with tons of photos. http://altspacerx8.blogspot.com/

The shitty thing is I have to drill a license plate into it.

Thx Rio.

Yup, we have those front plate laws in my state as well. I just defy them. Lol.

Ya I'm thinking about doing the same thing hah

I had the front on exclusively for a while. I don't recommend it. It's obvious that's it's not complete if you look at the car from any angle other than dead-on.

I'd compare this approach to the guys that buy two rims at a time and mount them.
