97 corolla body kit help?

I am looking to put a body kit on my corolla, the problem is, is that i cant find any front ends that i like. There are many side skirts and rear bumpers that I like, just cant seem to find a front end that doesnt look stupid. If anyone could help me find a decent looking front bumper lip or body kit, it would be appreciated alot.

Thanks both of you, the thing is, is that ive seen all of those and only like a few of them just a little. I was hoping to be able to find like a custom front lip of something different than these. But thank you for your help if you come accross anything else i would appreciate it if you could tell me.

My car has a 2002 Corolla front bumper/grille, 1994 head lights, and JDM 2004 fog lights.... and a lip on the bottom of the bumper, looks nice and clean.

But I know what you mean, I never found a body kit that I liked for my car. Do you know about the Erebuni bumpers?

dude to be honest, personally in my opinion i dont like corollas with bodykits too much, if anything maybe just get the side skirts, and a stock but aftermarket looking rear bumper and a front lip.. no big body kits

but thats just my opinion
once again, good luck

I agree with you with this, Just finding that front lip is the problem, only one for a 97 is shyguys one and it looks stupid in my opinion.

And gold94corolla, im the same one thats messaging you on Cardomain. And your car looks amazing.

Yea i may just not fix mine up, it will cost me probably 1500 just for body work and I dont see myself keeping this car for very long. May just take it from my parents, get a job, and save for a civic coupe, and put the money i make from the car towards the coupe.

yea its hard to find them, you can always take other bumper parts from other types of cars and cut peices out and use bodyfiller and sand it all out and fiberglass or w/e the hell you do if your good at autobody you can make a pretty sweet looking bodykit or front lip
give that a try if you have the basic knowledge, time and willing to learn a little, its mostly just trial and error

I suggest you start saving your monies up then or scrap the entire idea altogether.

You gotta pay to play.

yea i agree with phat, just scrap the whole idea right now.. move onto something else like modifying the engine for performance, give it a nice tuneup for now and if you see a lip or front kit in the future, jump on it and buy it
