Body Kit with the most clearance?
 
So Im really interested in getting a kit for my FRS, but clearance could be a bit of an issue in my neck of the woods. In the 4 weeks Ive had the car, there has been nothing even remotely close to an issue with clearance (stock car of course), but its the winter that I worry about.

The city plows are pretty great where I live, but thats because we get a shit tonne of snow, and it can fall fast and hard, so there's inevitably going to be times where there is snow as high or higher than the bottom of my car (those cold early morning drives to work :barf:).

This is my DD for the next year or two at least, unfortunately a truck is not in the cards yet, but I dont want to have to wait a few years until I can afford a second vehicle before I can start dressing my baby up... So does anyone have any suggestions for a "winter friendlyish" kit?

Simple ht auto lip kit would work. Doesnt sit that low and it pretty cheap so if it gets damaged, your heart wont break

Wow Im tempted to purchase a kit tonight :bonk:

Thats a fantastic deal, just checked out the website. Im going to look around for some more pics. This is very easily replaced if damaged in the winter, and even looks like it will protect the stock body to a small degree.

I love my downforce carbon lip kit. I bought it for the same reason (clearance), but for me it's because I'm going to lower it a lot more. You can get it at www.frs86.com , let them know Pedro sent you. Oh yea, I color matched mine but it looks nice both ways.

Looks good, what holes did you have to drill?

I believe 4-5 holes in the front with 3m tape and the side 3 holes on each side with 3m tape as well.
