Greddy or Wings West RS front lip?

Banter goes here, and doesn't have to be Lude related

Should I stick with the Wings West lip or snap up the GReddy lip should one present its self.

Difficult to tell, as yours has eyebrows and bonnet spoiler, which completely change the look of the front of the car.

FWIW, I think your car looks good as is.

In my opinion (obviously) the greddy lip just doesn't suit the rest of the car. You'd need skirts as deep all round to compliment it, but it still wouldn't look right. It just doesn't go with the style of the 5th.

I think the greddy would make it look way more aggressive... Don't get me wrong the car looks boom right now, at the end of the day it's how u want to style your car, subtle or inYaFaceMofos.....

I think the Greddy lip would suit better if the car had the bonnet spoiler fitted, the gaps in them both kind of mirror each other, but as already said, you would need skirts as deep to match.

WW lip looks great above.

WW bigmouth also looks sick, but depends how much of a 'Lude bumper purist/American you are..

IMO, Get the Greddy lip on the car but do get the letters shaved off. That will look much better and it will flow nicely with the bonnet spoiler, your sides, and your Mugen rear wing. 8-) 8-)

Having washed the car today, I stood back and the reflections in the shiny new paint are great, especially in the corners of the car.I think I'll keep the lip as is. James, I'm not a fan of big mouths or the wings West front bumper. Lol
