Another one of my [infamous] polls :)

as many of you may know, i'm very indecisive when it comes to exterior mods. yes yes it's my car and i should do what i want...but i can't decide what i want! and thus, i come to you guys for your opinions!

Option 1)
oem style carbon fiber lip
impul sideskirts
black rear valence overlay
ts style hood painted (except the vents will be left in carbon fiber)



(best i could do. the lip is black in the pic, but that's what it'll look like from far away i'm guessing )

here are some other dg coupes i photoshopped (did the best i could) with a black oem front lip (like i said, i think a black oem lip is how it'll look from afar lol)











Option 2)
oem lip
impul sideskirts
ts style hood completely painted dg



(just a pic of a data grille + oem lip)

don't know if it matters...but for those of you that don't know...i'm running gunmetal work vs-xx wheels and plan on 15% tint all around (except windshield) and i have a dg...

btw - impul sideskirts are going on this week!

this thread is mainly to help my choose between an oem lip and an oem style carbon fiber lip b/c i have to order it soon!

negatory on the CF front lip. Not only will it look weird, but it'll crack easily. the OEM lip will survive much better and look like it actually belongs. Everything else is clean and subtle on the car, why tack on a CF lip?

Option 2... Don't do the CF. I think it will look weird as well.
