Default BODY - Spoon style carbon lip make up for body kit???

I was talking to some one I know, and the topic of a custom kit came up for a civic that i own. I said I was thinking about buying a full kit for my car when the other guy exclaimed "DUUUUUDE, why waste money on an expensive body kit when you can just buy a SPOON style carbon front lip? It looks better than a whole kit yo!"

After I waited for him to quit withdrawling, I said how can that make up for a whole kit?

And then he passed out without answering me......

So i leave this up for discussion... Does a front lip really make up for a kit? I implore you!

Not sure I understand the question. Make up for a kit? Is a body kit necessary? No. Is a lip necessary? No. Why not just mod your car the way you like. There's no standard set guidelines to this, just do what you feel.
