What chin lip, side skirts are these?
Hi, can someone tell me what chin lip and side skirts these are? I want to put a front and rear lip on my factory bumpers and put something like these side skirts on but I want a nice clean look. Any help is great! Thanks.

With the first post the front lip is the mugen style lip. I am not sure bout the side skirts but maybe like riceboy said they maybe the oem sides.

I like it bc it's a clean look. Curious to see the rear. I prefer the 04-05 coupe rear bumpers over 01-03 also. I've been thinking about the conversion. my .02

The rear bumper is interchangeable between years, but I'm almost certain a front bumpers aren't. Also, the paint won't match if you just slap on bumpers from the junk yard, so for a conversion to look decent you need to have the car painted.
Basically, it would be cheaper to sell your Vic, and buy a 04/05.

The grill you've mentioned is the Altezza Grill available on eBay. The one in the picture has the front lip (of the grill) painted which looks the cleanest. IMO
I was just thinking of swapping the rear tails (maybe LED tails) and bumper. I personally don't like the headlights of 04-05 but that's just what I prefer.

The 04/05 tail lights are way nicer looking than the 01-03.
That swap is one of my favourite mods, hands down.

I was actually wondering if you could just swap the 04/05 tail lights to a 01 - 03... like if it mounts up perfectly and if the wires / bulbs all go in the same place???

the turn signal socket is different. That's about it. Bolts right up otherwise.
It's an easy fix to make it work, though. I do have some extra terminals to make them fully plug and play.
