Default Front lip suggestions??

Hey everyone just wanted to get some suggestions on a front lip I've searched and searched and narrowed it down to 3... The mines lip, Nismo replica lip, or ings lip wanted to get some opinions before I order.

of those choices i'd choose mines. but i like the veilside v1 lip. which is very similar to the mines.

- whatever you do, do not get one of those nismo replica lips.

LOL yeah I like the look of the nismo but heard nothing but bad fitment and quality issues about it, is there a good quality one similar to it?

My vote is the Mines.Perfect fit.30 min install.
Are you looking for a CF lip?Mines is only available
in CF.But you can paint it(ouch!)if you so desire.

IMO a Mine's style or Veilside style lip will look best on an otherwise stock exterior. Although, I have seen a few instances of the INGS LX lip installed with stock sides and rear and it looked good, but the car was slammed and stanced out which helped to pull it off.

The Mines is so good looking and I would not dare paint a cf part, why get cf is you're going to paint over it doesn't make much sense. I am doing sides and rear addons with diffuser so definitely not keeping the sides and rear stock. How about cwest cf front lip? it looks pretty nice looked at a couple of pics.

This is a URETHANE bumper...better than Fiberglass when using in a bumper application.

I was also looking at front lips. I like the carbon fiber n1 lip but I can't find any for my 2006, they all say 03-05. I don't really want to spend more than 300

Hard to find under 300 maybe try the marketplace get something used? The mines cost me 550 plus 65 for shipping!
