a spec front bumper only...not whole kit..looks okay?

i was thinking of adding the aspec front bumper to my car, but not the whole kit. just as a way to get a more aggressive look w/out breakindc the bank.

anyone here do JUST the front aspec bumper and does it look okay or will it look obviously unbalanced / wrong?

if anyone has pics of that setup - from various angles, please post htem up. id' like to see it! thanks.

Yep that's me. I only did the front because I've never liked how bulky the rear piece looks. Also, when I purchased my car the mud guards were already installed and the paint underneath is a bit scratched up so I didn't want to take them off.
I'm happy with how it looks, and I think the mud guards and OEM rear spoiler help balance it all out. Decide for yourself... I think my post is still alive in the photo gallery. There are also a few pictures at ronjonwheels.com.

Hey Mike! I'm following your footsteps. I just picked up an RL this Saturday. I still have the NSX though. How are you? Your RL looks hot!

It was about $400-$450 if I remember correctly (it's been a couple years now.) I installed it myself, but it was a huge pain in the a$$, so if you can find a dealer to do it for $100 or so I'd definitely recommend having them do it.
Conrad! Good to see you on here... it's been a while! Any big plans for the RL? Honda badges and a "legend" emblem? =)
