So the front lip has developed a nice big crack in the internal join so I started looking on Japanparts for a replacement.

I am thinking that I either go the same as currently fitted

JDM Japanese Auto Parts specialists | japanparts.com

or this

JDM Japanese Auto Parts specialists | japanparts.com

with the std lip.

Now the kicker is I am looking at going with these on the side and rear so I am not 100% on what the best match is for the front lip

JDM Japanese Auto Parts specialists | japanparts.com

also should I go carbon on the sill extensions or stay with gel coat black to match the lip?

final choice is do I change front lips all together and run this front lip

JDM Japanese Auto Parts specialists | japanparts.com

paint it and go carbon sill extensions??

thoughts??

Why are they gay???

I have always struggled with my manliness and the unfinished rear bumper in the lib and every rear diffuser I have seen IS GAYER than AD (not a typo)

anyway what front lip then? just replace what I have complete with roller door rubber?

Sorry Scary but none of those new lips work for me ... side skirts are even gayer.

Stick with the original which I'm not really a fan of with the underlip skirt either.

So - I guess I'm no help at all.

PS - Need to drive yours to feel BBK-M in action.

Carbon is always the better looking option, but do what you feel looks the best.

IMHO go for a carbon front lip and leave it at that.
