Wheel spacers and Front lip Question

Hey everyone, I was just wondering about wheel spacers, I have an 04 6mt and i want my stock 18" rims to sit flush with the body.
Is there a certain spacer i should buy/what ever one works best for our car?

I also want to buy a front lip for my car or maybe a new front bumper. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the help!

I like the n1 lip a lot for our cars:



Or the nismo bumper



I'd obviously take the bumper over a lip, but either or will make the car look great!

Also, isn't aphordite the goddess of beauty? (referring to your car garage page lol)

Yeah its a really nice bumper, if i was to change bumpers i would go with that one. which i might have to do, someone put me in the ditch in the winter time and cracked the bumper in some spots, its not too noticeable but it bothers me because i know its there.

If you change the bumper post up some pics ;D

In regard to spacers, I'd recommend measuring the distance from the tire to the fender to determine exactly what sized spacer would work best.



Then just purchase the appropriate spacer for the look you're trying to achieve.

For reference. I believe 1 inch is about 25MM.
