Go OEM with a lip kit. I looks like you have a park bench on the front of your car.

Yeah its a Bomex kit, I had two sets of them. Two front bumper were cracked, one from accident and another from various cracks due to many misc. crap. Two rear bumper, one was involved in a rear end accident and now I have a brand new rear and used side skirts but stock front. Cant take it anymore with fiberglass kit.

Get the Tsunami or Xenon kit's, those bomex kit's look like they add about 8 inches to the length of the car...

guys, i love the oem look, but its not what he is going for. telling him to put a oem bumper with lip on that car is just plain stupid. truthfully keep it exactly the way it is. dont touch a thing. it looks great with the kit you have now. the bomex front wont match, and truthfully i think the bomex is ugly.

damnnnn so many different opinions. I think i better put a poll

Im liking the oem + tsunami lip kit


I dont know if it will go with my car though?

Heres the pic of the tsunami kit

Im not too sure about it. The xenon kit is out of the question i dont like it. So its between Kaminari, Buddy club, Tsunami, and oem + tsunami lip
