Yeah, as far as looks it will be an upgrade from the base model. Go for it.

it depends, are u going to be getting an aftermarket kit later on?
if u are then the oem kit would be a waste of money imo.

I like the OEM kit. Makes the car look so much better. Aftermarket(eBay) too ricey.

I say its worth it, maybe the front and back for sure.

i believe u need the mugen bumper to have the grille. i'm saving up to get the Euro-R kit to finish up my conversion since that is the only thing i am missin along with the Fogs and my conversion has been completed.

actually, you can get the stand-alone mugen grill ($264.00 @ Kings Motorsports), which will work with the USDM OEM bumper, although I think there is a slight space gap between them...

OEM or nothing, replica lip kits can fit improperly and just look tacky. I've seen quite a few cars driving down the highway with cheap lip kits.. They literally flop around from the wind because some of them are so cheap.
