first of all welcome to the forum.

well it depends on which way you wanna go with it. do you wanna go all show, all go, or both? and depending on what your budget is would help as well or if you're just looking for any ideas no matter what the cost.

well as of right now there is one body kit you can get but its a bit pricey for the fact that daewoo kits are not common. Tom at 360dynamics can get them. but as for $1500 to spend first i would say get some 18" rims and some lowering springs. that would be about $1500 for all of it including the installation of the springs. i believe a company calle B&G make springs for the leggy but not sure about any others. just do a search on yahoo or something. or you could get a decent paint job first then get rims later.

what color is your leggy? those are decent are they chrome or silver? as for the lowering springs i would recommend them since it'll get rid of that dreaded wheel well gap. unless you want to be gangsta style with your ride cruisin high. 8)

i believe Tom (360) can get this type opf grille. the pic isn't of a leggy but same concept of style.

and as for the "silencer" do you mean the exhuast resinator? if you talking about that you can just go to a muffler shop to get that taken out and get a straight pipe put in its place.

as for the muffler unless you have the experience to do something like that i wouldn't recommend you doing it yourself. it shouldn't cost that much. maybe like $40 at the most to just cut off the resinator, and put a 1 foot straight pipe back on. and the grille would be a special order from 360dynamics so Tom can get it for you. and as for the body kit. there really isn't that many other options unless you wanna pay an ass load of money to get one imported from korea or something. and when i mean ass load i mean like $800 just for shipping.

if you feel up to it... there is always the diy grille mod. check the how-to's on that.



as nick said, there isn't much as far as body kits except though tom. if you could afford to get one from korea... you would actually save money by having a shop make one custom for you to start with. in all honesty, i think the best look is to get one of tom's body kits (maybe not that really racy, cut up looking one) and add your own fender-flares and scoops. it might cost a bit extra, but the looks are well worth it.
