I have a 1996 Sentra GXE 4-Door that is lowered 2" and I really want a ground effects kit but I have heard from people that I will regret putting the kit on. They say I can't drive anywhere. I can't go over speedbumps or into slanted driveways. I have tried calling dealers to see if they could give me a spec on the front bumper so I know how much clearance I will have but no one is willing to give me that information. Anybody have any opinions, thoughts, ideas?
Cmon now theres a bunch of us dropped on kits of all sorts dont let people get U down.. Once U get the kit U just have to learn how to drive in a new way... Sideways over bumps and down slopes.. Keep your eye on the road for pot holes and etc.... and you'll be fine
Yeah, A friend of mine dropped his Integra 2" and he was telling my that if you drop your car, you have to learn to drive all over again. You got to go down hills in an angle and dodge speed pot holes and man holes etc... The ride isnt that bad untill you hit a bump. But your handling is 10X better.
do what u got to do, not what other people tell u to do!! get a kit, why not? i mean, if u dont want performance and u want show, then go ahead, or if u want both, then go ahead.....your car, your choice, your shift(not shit, shift)

I live in Washington state and our traffic is really bad and the road condition is worse! This information came from a person who has spent $$$$$$ on their car. They have ripped off their front bumper numerous times. All I hear is Body Kit = Cha-Ching$$$$! So, I am just looking for opinions and thoughts. By the way does anyone live in Washington and drive a 96 Sentra GXE that is dropped 2" with a body kit? If so, how do you like it and what kind of kit?

the odds of this is like 1000000000000 to 1!!! lol
BTW get a urethane kit instead of a fiberglass kit if your worried. it's a lot more durable

I live in WA and I drive a 97 200sx lowered 1.5" with a full body kit and I have never had a problem. I can go over speedbumps without the GTR front rubbing at all. Also where I live the curbs are thankfully low or else I would have certainly fucked it up when parking. I try to park rear first if the curb is too high. And is it just me or are Washington drivers the absolute worst? I'm from Philly originally and I thought that Jersey drivers were bad!
i just park way back from the curb if i cant back in. kits and drops arent that bad unless you do like some dsm guys and your car is a damn street sweeper

how about those southern drivers when they get a little ice nobody is on the road. If they moved up to new york they'd have to hibernate for the winter.

Or how about the new york drivers, when they come to Florida and it starts raining really hard they pull off on the side of the road.
