That air duct on the front bumper looks like the one from the hood of a GTR or an EVO X.

I'd say just the lip. Your car is yellow isn't it?

I like the lip tray and fangs, but I would go just a hair higher than the lip and raise the black up on the sides and rear. Mine is 2 tone also. Just like yours with the roof and hatch but my black comes up higher. I will run into the same situation when I go ASM front.

bottom trim is some pretty hard stuff to decide on... always want to do it just right to be tasteful but too much can be disastrous it seems lol
