front lip only or full kit
Does it look good or bad to only have a front lip on the 04-05 model.
Is it better to have a full oem kit?
Anyone have pictures of the car with only the front lip install from different angles?
Comments and pictures are most welcome
thanks

Let me help you!
Some people only go with the front since it's the one that's most noticeable. However, it is a lip kit, which means it's added to the edge (ie: it'll lower the height of the lip). So if you look at it, you'll see the front lip at one height, and your side/rear higher than that height. If you don't mind it being uneven, then go ahead. Most people want the height to be the same all around.

Full kit. Go big or don't go at all. Cars with only a front lip on look very unbalanced when you see them from the side, and it just looks wrong to me.
Save up a bit and do it right.

I have just the front lip for several reasons. Like someone said above it does not make a big difference to have the who kit. Im saving weight and I like the look with just the front lip.

I was thinking about just getting the front 06+ Euro R lip

envision this extreme...getting a mugen lip or even a mugen front bumper and leaving the sides and rear stock. it is a kit for a reason, it all flows together.
