Default Which front end looks better the 96-98 or the 99-00; also which lip looks better spoon or mugen?

I have a Black 98 4dr and i was thinking of getting a CF Hood, CTR headlights, CF spoon or mugen lip,some CF fenders, CF CTR grill, and the square fog lights (if i stay with the 96-98 front end). But i was thinking if i'm going to do all that i might as well do a conversio to a 99-00 front end but i'm not sure which looks better. I was wondering if anyone has some pics of similar setups?

i personally feel that the 96-98 has a more aggressive look to it, espeically with the oem honda lip.

Personally I like the 99+ front-end. The headlights look sexier

96-98 with SiR lip, or this lip. [i dont know what it is]


the spoon lip sits a bit too low.


on a 99-00 the SI or Type R lip.
