How cheap are you trying to be? The oem one is nice but if you can't swing that much, do a search and you will find a cheaper lip.

well i just dont wanna spend too much on something that doesnt help with performance...i was kinda wanting to keep the sleeper/stock look but just adding a "not so flashy" yet inexpensive lip to make it look nicer and lower. im lookin to spend around 100-150 and hopefully get some sides and rear as well. i kinda like the Spoon front lip and Wings West "ad on" kits because it still kinda has the stock look w/ a little accent.

If you're willing to spend $150 on a front lip, theres a million you can choose from. I'd just go with the OEM lip and spend the rest of the money for something else..

OEM lip.....$70 max.

Or get the Wings West R.S. lip..

Just go with the OEM, best balance of fit/function/cost. And the lips can actually be functional, its not something you'll notice for normal driving though.

Go with the OEM lip. If you have a local junk yard check out some EX's that came with the lip. I found one and got all the clips and bolts with it. Payed something like $15 bucks.

I like the wings west lip personally but if you are on a budget get the Stock EX lip.

IMO, the OEM lip is way too subtle. If you want something a little more agressive, but still maintain an OEM-like fit...The WW RS lip is the only way to go. Made of tough-*** urethane, the lip cannot be defeated. Plus, if you shop around like I did you can find a sweet deal.

No, that was some ricer boy that had the car before me, that found a reason to put pins on a relatively stock car with a D16... I have yet to buy another hood.
