Nasty? Don't know but.... got the factory body kit w/ Comptech Springs. Damn it's kinda low when coming out of certain driveways, etc. Scraped it a couple of times and I'm careful. BTW it's my wife's daily driver.

It may look weird from the side w/o the side skirts though.

I agree....it would look weird from the sides. I was thinking about doing the same thing, but then I looked at my car from the side and I realized that it won't go w/the whole package.

IMO, don't do it. If you are going to put on a kit, put everything on.

I like the look of the TL with the factory side skirts and nothing else... My dream kit would consist of a Value front bumper, OEM side kuts, and OEM rear...Front would look kind of weird though, just go with tha side kuts...Shyne

I'm sorry but just the front will look odd. Just the sides will look odd. Everything except the front looks OK.

I actually had the front lip put on first because Wings West provided the incorrect sideskirts for my car. It was on for about 3 weeks. It really wasn't that bad at all...it didn't detract from the car. If you get the OEM front lip it will probably be even less noticeable. Of course, I had already lowered my car and put on my Volk wheels which may have made the front lip less noticeable from the side.

it looks very aggrssive with just a front lip... looking at NSX4DR's car. it shows a mean stance from the front. i would do it, a full kit looks bulky and boring. do something different, even stock tl's have full kits... putting a full kit on is old news IMO.

My opinion is that it would be different and give it that touring car look. Ultimately it is your decision and money. Do what ever makes you enjoy your car more. You can listen to our opinions but you make your own decisions at the end.

I've seen other pix of NSX4DR's car and I think it looks good! At least it's very original!
