The OEM lip completes the front end of the car.

IMO the Mugen splitter is a bit tacky, but since it's all about function, it gets a as well.

There's also the Route KS half spoiler, but I'm not a fan of it at all.

mugen lip suspossedly adds down force at times of heavy braking. I just like it, i dont brake fast enough to care about extra downforce.

First of all, it's a splitter, so it prevents air from going under the car causing turbulance/lift, and it may reduce the coefficient of drag as well.

It is also shaped like a wing to further generate downforce.

Actually, looking at bass's post with those two shots... It's kinda growing on me. I was probably a little spoiled seeing the huge amount of add-ons for the 03<

Now to find a good price..

I dislike the 04 front and lip so much that im deciding to swap back to a pre04 bumper with oem lip. 04 with lip looks soo bold and tall and the pre04 with oem lip looks wide which i like. But after looking at soo many pics im confused of what i want. I like the pre04 because its simple, clean, and from every angle it looks good. The 04 looks agressive but on the corner view its kinda of plain and from a distance it looks too busy for my taste. Here is a pic showing that. What to do!
