Help me pick a lip or kit
OK, so I've never been a huge fan of super aggressive and over the top body kits. My car is definitely more "low key" even though it is flashy, it is not JDM style. I am thinking of getting a subtle body kit (no wing) or just a lip. First off, here is a picture of my Z (before the spacer were installed, so no sunken wheels comments, please
):


Here are the lips and/or kits I have found that I like, but I'm finding it impossible to decide if they go with my car's overall look. What do you think?
Vertex:

Veilside Version 1:

West Wing (lip only):

Ings +1 LX:

Origin Lab urban:

Questions, comments, suggestions??? Please help me decide! Thanks!

First of all, just my opinion... I'd invest in some new rims w/ an aggressive setup and lower the car.
but as for the body i think the V2 front end would look pretty cool on the roadsters, but on the roadster I think the Origin kit would be dope...

Ok, respecting your request, I will not mention the wheel situation, as I think that it is perfectly fine the way it is. To answer you query in reference to the body kit. I personally think "low key" is not your car, with the sexy *** FMIC, however...my opinion lies solely with the Vertex kit. I'm a personal fan and think that it would be a subtle, yet obvious addition to the car. I am also a fan of the Veilside V1....Please excuse the rambling.....just got home from the bar.
i say vertex... im almost sure i drove next to you one time on the 101 south at 1am. Its been a while since, i just remeber droping gears to mess with you and you spanked on me. Raceing ftl but i just was having some fun with ya. I dont have any bolt ons so when i saw your exhaust i figured you had something under the hood. Reguardless i say vertex would set your car off. Although some phantom volks and a set of coils would be so much more worth the time. gluck with your choice.

vertex hands down. the others almost dont look like youve made any changes. i understand wanting to be subtle but if i was going to put a kit on my car i would want it to look different to the average passerby and not just we the Z community. in the end however you must choose what makes you say, damn thats my car, when you walk up to it everyday. Good luck my friend.
Here is my vote. I know its not on your list but it should be cheaper and looks better IMO. Its an official Nismo part as well. I just bought mine for $190+ shipping.
Here's a thread to see one painted on the vehicle.

Thanks for the feedback. As Slidefox mentioned for me, my Z is now on Stance GR+ Coilovers, lowered about 1". The wheels have 20mm spacers in front and 25mm spacers in back and a decent stance and amount of camber. I don't have any pictures since then, since the car has been in and out of the shop for other reasons.
