Default Exterior Mod opinion

Ok here is my dilemna. I got hit in my rear bumper in a parking lot and the person fled the scene, so I am in need of a new bumper. I would rather not just replace it with another AP1 bumper since I would rather upgrade my exterior. What are your opinions on a J's rear bumper but with a stock front bumper with either a airwalker or chargespeed lip. Do you think the rear bumper would be too extreme for this match up? I know the Ings rear is a little more tame and clean looking but I have a single exhaust and do not like the look of 2 cut outs and one exhaust. Or should I just get the stock bumper and a single exhaust cap and do a diffuser down the line. Oh and don't suggest the ASM which is my favorite by far for its clean look but it is far too much money for me to drop on a bumper. Thanks for your inputs...

if you're going to leave the front stock then get an OEM bumper but if you plan to eventually mod it and are leaving it stock now, the GP sports rear add-ons are a good choice.

^ I agree TSD or OEM (AP1 or AP2) over the J's on an S with stock front.
