does ww lip make a difference?

I was interested in buying the Wings West front lip kit for the 1st gen cl but i noticed that it doesnt make that much of a difference on the car.

I wanted to ask those of you who have it if it actually makes a difference as far as looks go...peace

shit. I'd almost forgotten how f'in sweet your cl looked vx. I think, subconciously, It's what I want my 97 2.2 to look like... (lol.) I had just decided that I was going to start saving up to get it painted black and that is more or less the same wheel style I wanted to go with too. (dont know about the hid's yet though. that might be out of my price range if what I read is correct.)

People think you have to go really aggressive to make a difference, but then it just ruins the lines of the car. The more "factory" it looks, the better.

it's like that dude Foose says. your car should make people ask "why DIDN'T they make it that way?"
