Smile Wanting to buy a clean Lip Kit...Need Opinions

Well, I keep searching around this site and I can't quite decide on what lip kit I want for my Silver 01 EX...I like the Kamanari's front and sides, but I hate how the rear looks...I'm basically looking for something as clean as possiable, but not as plain as the OEM...I also considerd the type b. Any opinions or pics of what you guys suggest would be great!!! Thanks in advance!

Im with u dude the Kaminari is sick accept those fin things in the middle of the rear, I hate those, theres has got to be a way to remove those out and smoothen it up, for a clean look.

Yeah, I love the front and sides, but the rear looks a little ricey to me...(Not to offend anyone who has it)...I was thinking of getting the Kamanari front and sides and finding a different rear...I just can't find anything that I like...Do you guys think the buddy club 2 full rear bumper would go good with everything else?

^^^ that just looks rediculous, theres something horribly wrong with that kit i just cant make it out rite now. Anyways For me its those fin things that kill the rear for me on the kaminari kit, just dremel those off, smoothen it out with soem fiberglass and it should be good, iunno why thsoe fakin fin things are there, it adds rice to the whole kit, and looks liek **** imo, im definitly slicin those muthafukas off.

whoa that even looks simpler than the oem kit. the spoiler is messed up too. idk about the rear. i've always thought the kami was the best looking. but if you don't like it, hmm, the other lips aren't really gonna match well.

Yeah, I thought about cutting the fins off the rear of the Kamanari and patching it up...I really like the Buddy Club 2 full kit, but it's all fiberglass....Though it's suppossed to be the high quality fiberglass that is flexiable, I just don't want to take a chance...Thanks guys for the suggestions and keep 'em coming
