Default Diffuser and what else?

After purchasing my Monte Carlo BLue S2k on the weekend i have already ordered my new wheels - Rota Slipstreams (with correct offset!!!) and have on order a set of Spoon progressive springs.

Next thing to order once i have had prices back from suppliers is my exhaust - J's Dual and also a J's Rear Diffuser.

My question is this, the car at the moment has all the OEM spoilers, bumper/boot and side spat things but will the diffuser look out of place and should i maybe replace the front oem lip with the j's lip?

i posted it in this section hoping people will post up there pics of their diffusers with different front bumpers and on std cars to help me make my mind up and also gather your opinions.

cheers

ps - please move if i have posted in wrong section

Why not keep those LM's on the car? I think I would definitely go with a more aggressive front if you are looking to go with a J's diffuser. I think it might look out of place with the rest of the car being stock looking.

ok, you're not replacing the BBS's with the Rota's right? The previous owner kept them or something, right?

why would you replace a set of LM's with a set of rotas... anyway.. back on topic, IMHO, i think the rear will look too busy to match the front.. but for a beautiful S

i knew you guys would love my choice in wheels.

i didnt like the bbs rims, to big and messy on the S, i think a nice set of 5 or 6 spoke's really suit it and seeing pics of evasive motorsports s2k confirmed it for me. i really wanted a set of the sw388 spoon wheels but you cant get them any more so had to go for the rotas.

i had rotas on my previous car, a nissan skyline gtr with 440bhp @ the wheels, and they held up to the constant abuse on track and on the road.

anyway back on track!
