Pic request: Type S stock front A-spec rear

Anyone have a pic of a type s with
Just the rear A spec bumper lip.
The reason I ask is cause I want to
Put the type s front bumper on my car
With no lip, but I want to keep the rear lip.
Im just not sure if its gonna look out of
Place

Just do the whole kit; it changes the whole look of the car!

Doing just the rear lip will look out of place and the car won't flow well

Ahhh what a dilemma. I love the type s front and
I love my rear lip. I hate the look of that bulky front
Aspec lip.

^Yeah, you'll want to do a front lip, 07/08 base. The TL-S front bumper comes down on the sides to complete the lip on the bottom, but it is not as dramatic as the lip that the A-Spec kit creates. I would just pull the trigger and order the whole A-Spec kit with the 07/08 base lip. That way nothing will look out of place and you'll have a complete look all the way around the car.

Blasphemy I tell you! Such a thing could never work!
