Sport Bumper or Front Lip?

I'm looking into getting either the OEM 06 sport bumper or the JP Vizage front lip for my G coupe, and need some advice. They cost about the same painted and shipped so money's not the issue. What would look better on my non-aero coupe? Here's a pic...

Or possibly the Nismo bumper?

btw... those G37 19 rims are for sale.

sport bumper looks like a waste of time. why would u wanna look oem and pay for a bumper that doesnt look much different then wat u already have. ur jus gonna end up paying $400 plus dollars to have ur people ask u "ugh so wat did u do to ur car"? lol

I still say OEM sports and then get a lip.. Everybody and their mom has Nismo including myself.. but it is a great way to go aftermarket without being too aggressive.
