eg lip vs body kit

what'sup guys, got a sort of newbie question here. sorry if it's already been answered, but I didn't find anything by searching. I have an eg coupe and decided to go with a lip kit on the front instead of a body kit. I think it looks much more clean. the issue I have now is what to do in the rear. personally, I hate the look of the stock bumper. It's too plain, and even a rear lip doesn't do it justice. are there any body kit bumpers out there that are closer to stock and not all ricey? also, would the bumper sit lower than the lip in the front? or should I just suck it up and go with the rear lip kit.. I'd rather not if I don't have to. Thanks for the input.

Re: eg lip vs body kit

It all depends on your taste mate. I prefer the "Ricey" look since My EJ6 and ED6 are from Japan. But there are some good aftermarket kits that look non Ricey and some that look like JDM or Ricey in other terms.

Re: eg lip vs body kit

so would it line up okay if i went kit but left oem bumper on the front with a lip? or would the back hang down too far?
