Yes! How else are you supposed to have fun mowing your lawn?

Not for me. I still have trouble disassociating ground effect kits from rice; and all too often the kits are way overblown and gaudy. If I were going to put any kit on at all, it would have to be very minimal, unassuming, and ABSOLUTELY must fit the overall lines of the car and NOT look like a taped-on kit.
edit: kinda like the car posted above! Different, but not "in-your-face" like those silly veilside kits from the late '90's.

Hmmm now that I take a second look at it, the lines realyl do NOT match the Vette. I might suggest a TS front (with or without lip, doesn't matter) and maybe a SpecterWerkes Rear fascia? That is a good clean look i'd say, a lot better than them ground effects you linked.
