i have a Berlina with a mugen lip and i got say I LOVE IT! Mugen FTW!!

Do you have any bigger pictures of your car? I'd love to see some well lit pictures of a BB with a Mugen lip. I think it's going to come down to Mugen or APR.

btw I narrowed my choices down to the same two

APR or Mugen but to me the Mugen looks like its tacked on...and looks cheap from some angles so I went with the APR

We are on EXACTLY the same wave length. From some angles I think the Mugen lip looks absolutely epic. From others however, it looks tacky. I do think that on a black car, it will look a little more subtle. That's why I'm still considering it.

Someone please find me some good pics of the Mugen lip on a Berlina S2000.

Yeah I agree on the black but my car is SPA yellow lol so I went with the APR lip. Plus I dunno how the Mugen lip would look with my new gold Enkei RPF1s that are on the way. The APR is slightly more subtle and flows a lot better then the mugen IMO

Ok, so I need to get something done on the front of my car. It's been bugging me for a long time, but I can't decide on which direction I like. For an AP1 it's easy, but mine's an AP2. I'm not at all against "JDM bling", but JDM exclusivity isn't a priority for me. I'll go over my list real quick

OEM AP2:
Pros - Perfect fit, cheap, prepainted
Cons - Kind of cookie cutter... It's just really common

OEM CR:
Pros - Perfect fit, fairly cheap, prepainted
Cons - Ugly as sin

Mugen:
Pros - Perfect fit, subtle yet aggressive from some angles
Cons - Not painted, appears "tacked on" from some angles, Appears to hang very low, I question how good it would look with my wheels

APR:
Pros - Price is right, I like the "diffuser" style, CF
Cons - Don't know fit, Not sure I like the way it fits to the side of the bumper

Chargespeed:
Pros - Very subtle without the canards, CF
Cons - Not terribly cheap, I don't know fitment

Amuse:
Pros - BEAUTIFUL, should be near OEM fit, Aggressive without being gawdy
Cons - Pricey, everyone seems to be out of stock, Leaves me with a useless OEM front

ASM:
Pros - Looks good, perfect fit, aggressive
Cons - Same as Amuse, and I think I like the Amuse better

I'm more interested in what will "flow" the best with the current look I have (huge non-JDM wheels) on the color I have. Certain bumpers and lips look better on certain colors and worse on others. Berlina tends to hide some aggressiveness that colors like yellow would showcase.

Any ideas???? please throw some pictures up to support your idea.

Here's the car:
