The rear lip spoiler would be the spoiler I'd get. But if I were you, I'd get the rear wing spoiler. The car wouldn't look right with only the front spoiler.

I think wing spoiler would be best. The car would look kind of funny with just the front under body spoiler.

EDIT: I agree with Mike that the deck lid spoiler would be my choice but it wasn't one of the choices given.

I think the wing spoiler looks stupid without the underbody spoilers. The lip would be a better choice if you don't plan on getting the underbody.

I go for the front lip as it makes the car look more aggressive from the front view.

THis is what it would like like on your car:

Go with the trunk spoiler (whether wing or lip is up to you). The underbody spoiler will look weird from the side view (IMO) if the whole kit is not on.

Look at it this way, get the trunk spoiler, and then you can save up for the whole kit if you want...

I recently saw a WDP at the North Scottsdale Acura Dealer with only the front underbody spoiler - no side or rear spoiler. It looked very good. I didn't even notice that the side and rear underbody treatments were missing. They are not as dramatic as you would think.

I would go with either the trunk lip or the front underbody. My preference is the front underbody if you are onlt going to do one - it gives you the most aggressive look.

Just my opinion.
