Wow the lip looks extra HUGE-GINORMOUS!! It flares out too much and looks way out of place. I say ditch it and get a more subtle looking lip. Rest of the car looks good.. especially the color.. love it!

+ juan for it being FI

yea it is pretty big.. but im hoping after I do side skirts it will balence out, and im tired of plain old jdm look, I want to do something different but still tastefull and clean.

plans are pretty much sideskirts, rear lip or rear valences, shave hatch.

but gimme some suggestions with pics for skirts, im thinking aztect or wings west.

i think you should leave it with out the lip and drop it a little more
but thats just my 2cents
color looks good though and will go good with those wheels

i like the azect sides and rear.
front lip is nice and different, but an OEM badge on the back would suffice or just ditch it all together.
