Default What you guys think about Greddy Lip Kip for my 06?

I'm thinking about getting the whole kit.

http://www.autocarparts.com/part/list/1227/

Let me know what you guys think. Yes or No? Should I go for it?

I thought it looked pretty good personally. I kinda like it better than the nismo lip, but that's just me. I want your opinions though.

I really don't want to be spending 2-3 grand on the lip kit, so I'd figured this would be a pretty darn good looking kit for just under 1grand.

I don't think Greddy made a front lip for 06-08. The rest of the lip would work though.

Never been a fan of the Greddy front lip or rear lip. The sides are awesome though.

Did you check the marketplace here? I'm sure you can get an full lip kit for around $1000.

I have Greddy sides but never liked the lip either. To me, that weird edge design doesn't flow with the rest of the car at all. Or with the rest of their kit for that matter.

I like my Greddy side skirts for the most part (have some fitment issues but I'v heard that's rare). The front and rear don't do anything for me. I believe the main difference between 03-05 and 06" bumpers is the center section (someone correct me if I am wrong), but it could be that the center portion of the Greddy lip is designed large enough to fit either bumper design.

Yep! They replace the OEM.

A popular combination is to have the Aerosync N1 (replica nismo v1) bumper and the greddy sides, and it looks awesome!

But, do whatever, its your car and all your style!

Sounds good. I really wanted the nismo lip but I guess the replica will do just fine for me since all its going to do its scratch on the ground. haha. Thankss!
