i think it needs paint along w/ your lip.....and a hardtop to pull it off 110%

looks good as it is though

Some kid with a CR didnt like it and I offered $50 playing around he said $60 so I bought it. As for the lip I may get it painted this weekend, or just save the money & get the J's Racing type-S bumper some time next month.

Am I the only one that thinks wings on topless cars are dumb? (Just curious as it does look good, but I cant deny the part of my brain that screams "silly!)

Yea I hate the CR lip too and I hated the wing aswell. I actually had a BYS ready to put on but when I came accross this deal and just placed the wing over my trunk I fell in love with it, its a bit ricey I admit but makes the car look aggresive, not to mention I feel the diffrence in stability at higher speeds

I'm not the biggest fan of the CR package and would never consider buying the parts at full price but for $60 you can't beat it. Good find man

You're pretty much headed the wrong path. Oh well. It makes me look better.

That's a matter of opinion, Sean.

I don't think it looks that bad actually.

If it was painted yellow along with the front lip, i think it would look better, but i still like it

Of course we know these are opinions. I figured that much was at least understood. Yea, it would look a lot better if the lip were color-matched, but the oem spoiler looks 100 times better.

i love that lip its prolly my fav for the ap2s including the mugen one too. I would have to agree with graffiti on this one your car would look complete if you painted the wing and lip and got a hardtop.
