Any of the non-us factory spec jdm bumpers, lights, etc. are good enough, IMO.

For you, GTS side skirts and the Levin front.

well the jdm bumper and the side skirts are hard to come by ive been to every junk yard in town and there arent any gts model rollas there other wise i would have put a 4age in my car instead.im thinking some fender flairs and maybe the bomx side skirts. ive already installed strobes in the running lights. im debating a spoiler. if i put one on it id want on that adjustable but low profile, and im also debating a hood scoop with ram air but im not sure if it rains id be able to drive

I have GTS side skirts I want to get rid of, for sale. I bought them to install but I'm going another route to use another cars' side skirt since my ae92 is a sedan.

If you can find a levin GZE front end, they have factory hood scoops. I actually have just the hoodscoop itself for my project. Those cars also had 4AGZE supercharged. Levin GZE are jdm, tho. Not sure what your budget is.

For the intake, I believe there are water catches right after the air filter for any water that gets in so the engine doesn't end up drowning. So, as long as you have those, I think you should be fine. Real ram air cars has them for sure.

probably because no one buys body kits, they are hideous so i dont know why youd even think about it. bomex is the only one i know of and it is god awful ugly, basically putting that on is like saying "well my corolla isn't ugly enough, i want it to look like shit, ill get the bomex kit".
