You in Sydney? Buy my blended DC front bar (click the link below) and grab a set of D'Cautro sideskirts and you're set. That'll be about 1500 fitted all up.

hey man your post question doesnt make sense

should a bodykit be bought before or after a tyre/wheel pakage?

the choices should have been "before" and "after"

so i dont exactly know what your asking but I'd say u definately need some new rims before a body kit!

I'd be going the other way, bodykit first, then you see if clearances etc are ok with your rim choice.

well in theory you should lower the car first (if your going to) then get the kit, then the rims.
