ebay lip on graphite/silver 03/04 sedan? didn't find searching

any have the Ebay lip on a diamond graphite or brilliant silver sedan?

I see enough pics on black, but was curious how they look on a lighter color where the features show more?

Not a fan of the stock front on the '04, and wondering if this lip makes enough of a difference to avoid spending $600 or so for a whole front bumper swap.

this is the lip i saw, i thought i read people used it w/ good results.

I am deciding between a 06 or an 04 (for like $5k less) Just deciding on what I would need to get the looks of the 04 where I want them, and the lip is a lot less $ than a bumper swap, especially after paint.

thanks!

If you get it and paint it you will most likely want the side sills painted. The main benefit to the 05/06 is the use of aluminum on the center console instead of painted plastic, painted side sills and the better looking front bumper stock. There are a few other things, but as far as looks go those are the most significant.

I must say you guys in NY have some different tastes when it comes to modding. I've never seen an 03-04 bumper modded that way but it's definitely unique. Not a fan of the look but props anyway for doing something different.

^ I agree, if you were gonna mod that bumper, take out the middle pieces and fill in below the plate. I don't hate the split lip, though.

To be honest...the ebay front lip is one of the better lips I've seen on a 03/04 sedan and at not a bad price
