I personally think no kit, as I like the subtle lines of the AE
:D

**but in saying that, if I could get my hands on a Jblood kit, id be all over it like a school girl on prom night**

No kit.
The panda look is sweet too. Do it!

My main point is the sides of the car.
Without skirts, it has a 'rounds off to the underside of the car' look, which IMO, doesn't look very good.
However, the skirts in that kit sort of flare out too much.
Something a bit more subtle would look good.

Something like this:

Agree with you.
It can be down to personal preference really. If it was me (and provided I don't have to deal with any nasty drive ways) I'd have it slamed with vertex kit. It could look a bit funny if you can not have it that low to try and stop damage.

depends what wheels and ride height you'll have on it

if you have wide/good offset wheels and low then vertex definitely

im thinking i might just fit the kit, i have it here so why not. yeah it looks good, my levin will be sitting nice and low, not mercedes on bling rims low but nice low with my mesh rims.

Don't see many with kits in NZ, so I say do it for that reason :)

Looks pretty good 8)

Though, you will have to have the wheels / ride height to pull it off properly imo.
