front bumper opinion

ok my front bumper is pretty bitched up... and i was wondering what you guys would personally do about it. i know a lot of you would put the 98 front end on but do you think it would be ridiculous without the 98 rear? and i dont think a 98 rear would work because my exhaust. i had to cut out the bumper i have to fit the exaust properly. but i dont know if im for the 98 front end anyways. and i would hate to replace it with the stock bumper i already have (a 94-97). and even though i love them... the jdm front end is out of the question because its too much money. so what do you guys think? :what:

Save up and get the '98+ conversion like I am. It looks so much more aggressive. Don't worry about the rear. That'd be the last thing I do.

^^^cabezzz is right, you should check out his front end, its as nice as you can get for a 94-97 front end. btw if you do get the 98+ front end, there's no rush for the 98+ back. heck i still have mines... =P

I still have my 94-97 front end, and I have the 98-01 rear bumper. It doesn't bother me at all, it looks fine. And my exhaust was fine when I did the switch, even though it's aftermarket.

well thats kind of what im thinking because the more aggresive look doesnt do much for me. i was just saying i would hate putting something i already have back on. kind of like when my stock exhaust was going to shit... why put another stock part on when i can get something better that i didnt have in the 1st place? catch my drift? but anyways the lip idea isnt all that bad of an idea. im gonna try to find pics of your ride. but where can i find a good looking lip for fairly cheap? and a bumper too? im hoping maybe a CI member will have a bumper thats already painted the color of my car cause i dont wanna have to go get the shit painted. oh and do the lips still look good with only that on the front and the rest stock? or am i gonna hafta maybe invest in a little something extra for the sides and rear? im gonna hope i dont because im a cheap bastard lol :roll:

the car will look fine with just the lip in the front you don't really need the sides or rears... do you know what lip your looking into?

what about with the stock black sideskirts? but no not a clue what kind of lip. i did kind of like the front end of the closest green teg in the pic but thats a bit more of an extreme to what im looking for i think. but maybe not

also you can get the stock black sides painted to match your car a friend of mine did it on his ls looks good

i like the skirts on the last one. i think those and the lip on the green one at the top would look pretty good. but im not there yet... i just want to do the front really. and i guess maybe paint the stock sideskirts or just leave the lip black to match? not sure how that would look
