I am going to add the hot Chris style frame rail extenders but that is pretty much it for body mods. Thanks.


The mods you are making will improve the handling but you'll never achieve Porsche level. The car doesn't have the correct chassis or suspension design and there isn't much you can do about it. But you can build a car that looks cool and handles fairly well without breaking the bank.


If his ride is 100% street driven would you ever even be able to drive it hard enough to notice the difference (after aforementioned upgrades)?
