PIC RQ: DG 06 Sports bumper with Aftermarket sideskirts / splash guards / kits etc.

Hi

I am getting a Silver 2006 with sports bumper and 19" OEM wheels. I will add clear corners and throw on some tints, but i don't if i should get sideskirts and which sideskirts flow well with the sports bumper. Not sure if I should try and get some JDM OEM splash guards etc before it leaves japan and possibly some other body parts before it leaves japan.

What kit looks good with the sports bumper / DG combo?
Should i add bats overlay to the rear diffuser?

NB - I don't like the datalip style chin lip extension to the 06 bumper.

Thanks
Mike







PS - I'm pretty sure from the pics I have the 06 sport bumper correct???

most, if not all, aftermarket sideskirts are lower and itll look dumb (imho)

if youre gonna do sides then get a new front as well...

not the best pic...

but deal with it



it's about 1" lower than the 06 sport bumper

i would say the closest would be impul, which are only slight lower than stock. Considering alot of people run the impul skirts with the OEM front lip, and the sport bumper sits about as low as the oem lip, that would probably work

speedraver has oem chin lip spoiler with impul sides on a 2005.
the pics i've seen the isn't too much difference in height.





However i would imagine OEM chin lip would be lower than 06 sports bumper

splash guards for the rear are a must!

and the skirts are very obviously lower than the oem lip in the first pic you posted......

looks like only at the front edge, where it angles down though, and no more than the splashguards do
