Default Spoon S-Tai bumper on a CR

I was wondering what some of you guys think about putting the Spoon bumper on a CR. I've always loved the look of the Spoon but have really been on the fence about putting one on my car because:

a. I don't really want to mess with the visual essence of what the CR is
&
b. I don't know how that combination will mesh/clash with the CR wing (even if it is just one visual change)

Now I understand that it ultimately comes down to "my car, my choice" and I think it would look pretty awesome, but I'd like to know what some of you guys think. I think a purist and non-purest debate (or just sharing personal opinions) can yield some insight on both perspectives and if any of you guys have seen this or done this, pictures are encouraged.

In my opinion I think the CR front is the best looking front for majority of the builds. I do love the spoon bumper but it needs a different aggressive form with it. I have listed below what fronts I prefer.

1. ap2/CR lip

2. ap1/BYS lip

3. Voltex front bumper.

I agree the Spoon bumper alone is very aggressive. I should have noted that my CR sits on work xd9 wheels 17x9.5 +38 with 255/40 all around...if that carried any weight with anyone as far as having an "aggressive" look.

I think the CR should be left alone aesthetically. It looks awesome and has been tested by Honda to really function.

This is darkknight2k's cr with spoon bumper and more. Don't know why the hood was damaged but the car overall looked pretty bad ass.. There's a bunch of professional car show pics of his car on instagram where this car shines. Sorry about the shitty cell phone pic but this was at sandy hook a few months ago..

Aesthetically the CR is the best looking and functional S2000. I always shake my head in disbelief when CR owners mess with it... I dont mean it in an insulting way but it just makes me cringe when others do it to a limited edition car. Now a regular S2000 have at it but a CR?

Your car and your decision but if it were me i'd leave it alone and use that money on something else.

darknights2k has the front and rear fenders and sideskirts to match the spoon bumper. I myself have the spoon bumper and let's say I added on to the s to balance out the aggressive front and eh.. looks nowhere close to the s2k that I bought years ago.
