Need help deciding Re: Aspec install
I know the bumper mismatching is a common problem, especially with WDP, but I am unsure of what to do. I am installing the aspec bodykit (new) and was hoping that the front lip would sort of blend in with the bumper, but like the rest of the car, it is off quite a bit. So I am now thinking about maybe having the front bumper painted or installing it "as is" and living with the mismatch. If I go the painting route... would it be better to leave the lip with the factory paint or have it repainted with the bumper?
I also can't decide which tails to go with...I figured I'd either pick up a set of TypeS or 07/08 base tails and swap them out when installing the rear aspec lip. I can't decide which ones look better paired with WDP...decisions, decisions...

I'm leaning towards installing the lip as is and then removing the bumper w/lip at a later date to paint. it still boggles my mind that acura would allow such a lousy paint match.
