Question Need a front lip

Whats up guys . . . I was just looking for some feed back on what lip I should pick up. I am more of a traditional kinda person and not really looking for a real gawdy piece of carbon fiber or fiberglass.

I have a myspace page with some low quality pics of my car and the rims I am gonna throw on her in the Spring. I will also have the windows blacked out along with the side markers and rear directionals.

Just wanna go ahead and thank anyone who cares to share their opinion.

the veilside version 1 lip looks clean and you can get it in urethane...doesn't cost all that much either

Here are my recommendations for something "simple" (almost OEM):

[1] Veilside V1 Lip. If you can't find a Veilside, you can also look at one produced by GSC Motorsports.
[2] Nismo USDM Lip
[3] Nismo JDM Front Bumper which they also sell in a Polyurethane & Urethane replica. There are some good quality ones out there with no lip line compared to the original. I believe it's called the "N-Style" by "KurumaZ".

Actually, I was leaning towards carbon fiber. Tryin to keep the black and white theme going.

Thanks for the link. I'll keep that one in mind.

Hello everyone,

Could you please confirm if the "USDM" Nismo Lip is genuine? What is it made of?

I am in Tokyo and I have never seen a lip only option for the original front bar.

Thanks.
