I was wondering if anyone had any pics of a GT with just the SC/T front clip. Or do you think that it wouldn't look right without the rest of the kit?

And, I use to have Sprint springs and I am used to watching inclines and such so I'm ok with it being lower, but I was thinking about getting eibachs along with the front clip. About how much lower would that make the front end to the ground then?

Yep your stock rockers will not look right with the way the front piece lowers the flow of the car......

I'm sure this has been done before though. Does anyone know of/have any pics with just the front on?

to me it looks like the sc/t rockers are at about the same height as the regular gt rockers..

No... the SC/T rockers are way lower than the GT ones. And yes, it has been confirmed that this looks retarded. GTLUVA used to rock just the front lip. If you search you may find some threads that haven't been deleted.

Yeah, won't look right at all. Get the whole kit or don't bother. It will be fine lowered as long as you're carefull, but it's definitely a lot closer to the ground with the SC/T pieces. fyi, eibach springs aren't as low as sprints so if you get eibachs you'll be higher (probably gain back a few tenths).

I agree with what has been said. Side SC/T rockers are much lower than stock. For a while I had just the side rockers without front and back...and it just doesn't look right. Currently I have just the sides and rear on due to winter/snow and i still can't stand how it looks without the front. The whole kit is the only way to go. You don't wanna look like this one celica I saw the other day with some huge ass body kit front bumper and the rest stock. Looked horrible...

does anybody know about how much it is for prep and paint for the whole kit?

I paid $400 for prep, paint, and install.

lol Yeah, good luck finding that.

And like everyone else said, don't half-ass it. Whole kit or no kit. It may only be a subtle addition to the car but it makes a huge difference. Think of a car with just the AAS front bumper and the rest stock, it would look stupid. Same goes for the SC/T.

I'm sure that it does make a huge difference but I guess I don't see how much lower the sc/t rockers really are compared to the gt.. I'm sure there is a difference, i just wish i could find a pic of a GA with just the front piece on...

the other option if nobody has any pics is could someone with an sc't kit measure the front of the rocker from top to bottom and figure out the length of it so we could compare it to the length of the stock GT rocker.

i can see how the front piece is a lot lower than the sides in the middle (beneth say the front door handle) but it doesn't look THAT much lower compared to where the GT rockers angle down toward the ends

btw.. i do agree that the entire kit is subtle yet compliments the chin spoiler very well.. I just don't have the cash to buy paint ect the entire kit right now, and just thought that just the front piece would look alright without the rest of the kit..

I'm sorry I don't have any pics when I use to rock the front lip my Dell Computer crashed at that time so I lost my really old pics of my GA. I'm happy I don't rock the GA anymore its nice having cheaper car insurance each month. My Ga days are gone.

I Would get the whole kit, why would you want a lip lit in just the front of your car, its not s splitter, its a lip kit, and they look like **** on any car if you don't do it all the way around, as for prep, paint, and install, mine cost 900, i kindda got screwed, long story. But don't half ass it trust the SC/T Guys!
