Piece it together. Ron J is OK but the front lip (to me) is not good looking. The best front lip is to custom CL / TL lip conversion. I just got mine out the shop last Friday and can't be more happy. Here is mine

anyway, there aren't many options and I have been trying to get the right look for over 10 years. It's all up to personal preference and you own taste. Good Luck shopping

Please let me know if you find one that is pleasing & aesthetically nice. Most lip kit for CL looks like a snow plow after they are mounted. There is one called WingsWest in CA. Some guys here bought the TL lip & modified to fit the CL. I've spent months searching for the best looking one & my opinion is Gnuts's conversion for his CL looked the best.

I spoke to my body shop guy & he said the glue alone will cost $320. Not including the labor & supplies. Plus, the bumper would have to be smoothed out (due to stone chips) before repainting. When I heard it was that extensive, I decide to abandon the idea & go ahead with other projects.
