Default Aftermarket bumper + bumper protector?

I'm about to buy another aftermarket bumper and before I do, I'd like some suggestions or ideas on how to pair it with a bumper protector. Since I am dropped a good amount, my bumper would get messed up pretty quick without a protector. I'd prefer a full bumper piece instead of 2 splitters on the sides so I wouldn't have to worry about scrapes/scratches in the middle.

So does anyone know if:
04-09 HONDA S2000 FRONT BUMPER PROTECTOR
http://grill-accessories.com/hondas2000fro...splitter-1.aspx

or

04-07 Honda S2000 Spoiler Splitter
http://grill-accessories.com/spoilersplitt...-2007s2000.aspx

will fit on a shine asm bumper in order to work efficiently. Will the bolt holes line up? Which of the 2 do you think would work better? or maybe the ap1 front splitter? Any advice greatly appreciated!
Pics for reference




-Thanks

Take a piece of carboard and use it as a template, mark all the mounting points and the shape of the splitter.

It would be easy to fabricate one out of some sheet metal.

Sorry for not answering your question, but this would be an alternative, it's really quite simple.

I'd go with an APR, you can have it custom made to fit your needs and its only like $10 extra. Talk to the guys at GoTuning.

whats the difference between the bumper protector and the splitter.

I know what they are trying to say, but they look similar.

I want to add the OEM AP2 lip and a splitter, but it looks like if you have the splitter you dont need the bumper protector, it that what Im seeing >>?

It's so hard to find an oem bumper in good condition + berlina black. I would paint but might as well get a shine asm.

Not really, I'm asking this for aftermarket bumpers. I know they will fit oem bumpers. Anyone ever tried the bumper protector with an aftermarket bumper?
