Default Carbon Fiber bumper, and a few other lips...

Had this sitting in the garage for a long time and never had the desire to put it on, got bored so I wanted to see how it looks...And since my old cf lip snapped in three places when I hit the curb. I'm putting on my flame suit

CF bumper



Mugen Lip


CF Lip that snapped



Bad shot of my truck and civic

cf lip and daily driving do not mix well, like oil and water. The cf bumper doesn't look that bad, imo it lines up well with the hood and fenders.

I personally think its looks good but it would look better without the mesh inserts.

I think it looks alright when the mesh isn't in the little fog light holes. I think you should take if off, spray the mesh in the grill black and call it a day. Or if your feelin antsy try to jerry rig some fogs in those holes. They looks like they may be to big though
