Honestly, I like both. Although a lot of people on this board alone have the Js front. There are only 2 that I know that are running the Spoon. So its pretty rare and functional but IMO the Spoon only flows if you have a yellow or black s2k. Any other color its to ricey. Thats just me though. The Js on the other hand looks clean if you have their entire kit like Ben over at AJ. Performance wise you cant go wrong with either. So its a toss-up.

Good luck
I agree on the color restrictions on the spoon... IMO, Berlina looks the best with it...

i agree w/roo, hid on hid kinda looks kinda ricey but u can always get 2800k HID bulbs which is bright yellow for the fogs. kinda like the GS400/IS300 but much much brighter.
Yes, sorry that was my ignorance. They are doing a 3000k HID kit which I didn't realise was yellow.

Get J's Type-S aero or just the bumper. I used to be a great fan of Spoon but this bumper really doesnt look right to me.

This angle (s2krob above) makes it look like a snowplow

IMO Spoon is the ugliest aftermarket bumper of them all. I would go with J's Racing.

I find the J's Racing bumper to be the most functional bumper out there.

Can you explain why that is so?

The bumper seems to create a lot of drag
