Does the 6mt coupe have the same bumper as the auto?
03-05 have the same bumper reguardless of the transmission or packages
06-07 base models have same bumpers as the 03-05
06-07 SPORT Package includes a new front bumper and side skirts commonly refffered to as Sport Front or Sport Sides

Dumb question but how can you tell if it's the sports model?
Hmm.. good question actually... sport models have slightly stiffer springs, 19" Rays, the formentioned body kit, metal accelerator/brake pedals and orange stitching on the steering wheel
Pretty much everything can be bought 2nd hand so its still hard to tell a true sport model.... only thing someone is least likely to buy would be the steering wheel, if you see the orange stitching its probably a sport model

There is an OEM lip that I believe is still available for the 03-05 coupes. Not sure if it also fits the 06-07 non-sport. I bought mine several years ago and they came prepainted. This is on my 2003. Luckily I purchasd the 06+ projectors before the HUGH price increase.

The OEM sports lip has not been available through the dealerships for a couple of years, you will need to look at eBay or some other source. I do not believe the sport lip fits the 06+ bumpers because those bumpers incorporated an integrated lip into them.

Thanks
Sport package was available on all years reguardless of transmission, its only the 06-07 models where you get all the new bumpers
The OEM lip was an add on, will fit 03-05 sport/non-sport and 06-07 non-sport

Not always the case, I've seen G's for sale with the 19" Rays but nothing else in the Sport Pack dealers do it all the time to get more money
Run the VIN if you neeeeed to know but as I said above if it has orange stitching on the steering wheel its definitely a sport
