that's my set up, but it depends on you. I did my car like that so when people see me in there rear view they can say holy sh*t look at that Eclipse?" , then when I past them they can say "was that a Eclipse?"

lol.....
That also depends on what kit/kit pieces you get. From the looks of it, it looks like you have a combat rear, which works with stock stuff cuz its design is to be high in the rear like an exotic, but in Dan's case, a bomex rear sits very low, and the stock front bumper might not come low enough to match the low rear and beefy blitz sides. I honestly think the stock fronts NOT gonna work with this particular setup.

i dont really think it would match very well... but to each their own. If you would like it that is all that really matters... unless you are cruising for chicks.

I've seen a few cars with a stock front bumper and aftermarket skirts/rear bumper. They all looked like someone ran outta money before finishing the body kit. To each their own, though.

Go for the whole thing. Stock front w/ kitted sides / back will be lame. It will look like you hit an armadillo or something, and could'nt afford to fix it. If it's temp then you gotta do what you gotta do to stay on the road. But for long term, I think you'll end up getting heat for it. All stock or all aftermarket, no mix and match.
