This is as close as I've seen to an OEM lip (this is the N1) and impuls...and I don't like how it lines up (doesn't) in my opinion. I would go with a new bumper or JUST the lip and some splash guards if you want to keep it simple or even keep it OEM. Otherwise I love my nismo, as many many many of us do up here . So go with what cha like! I'd roll an all nismo photoshoot sometime ehehehehe

The middle of the car looks too low without a front bumper at a minimum, you can do a front bumper with no skirts, but I think it looks funny with skirts and no front bumper. And an aftermarket lip does not count as a bumper... lol

@shank, thats the klumzee lip, he went out of business and doesnt make them anymore, I used to have one

Another good option I think that is similar to the Nismo look is the Inven, have you checked that out?
