I don't think it will flow with the lx sides. At the very least you will need the n-spec sides.

If you're gonna do the Ings+1 Long Nose, don't half @ss it. Go all out with the the whole kit and an SBC to match.

Ings-1 is rice.

Stick to Nismo FTW.





























LOL

J/k

But back to your question, I don't think the LX sides will flow well with that bumper since the bumper sits so low.

XM1 - here you go
your looking at almost 20 inches from headlight seam to bottom of lip. (measured straight down from headlight seam. The bottom of my lip on the ends are 4 and 6/8 inches from the ground. I'm lowered on Hotchkis springs which gives a mild drop, which is a good thing, otherwise this lip would be scraping on everything.
