If I had an AP1, there's no doubt that I'd get the front lip eventually.

When I go see the local NFR w/ the OEM lip, I'll take better pix

But here is what I was able to find:

Of course, I've not added anything to my car yet. About the only things I'm certain to do eventually is the rear spoiler ("not" the wing), the in trunk CD player, and the usual speaker upgrades. I'm leaning toward the S-Pods so far.

I agree with you Steve. AP1, OEM front lip in a heartbeat.

With the AP2, I'm still not sure.

Regarding the rear spoiler, I'm still on the fence with that one as well

I love the AP1 lips, but the AP2 lips are OK. I'm on the fence with them. I love the Mugen's AP2 lip, but I think they are insane with the price, which is standard with Mugen's stuff. Yes, I'm sure Mugen did extensive wind tunnel testing and that it improves high speed handling, but in all practicality, for the street, who cares? We need a good looking, cheap front lip for the AP2 at similar cost of the OEM!

While the ap2 bumper/lip combo looks more integrated, that doesn't mean it looks good.

The view from a quarter angle shot bothers me the most. It makes it look huge... I haven't seen on in person yet so maybe I could change my mind.
