Unless you decide to get a full body kit you may as well just get a lip and stick your OEM bumper. Getting one piece of a body kit like that would look really misproportioned..especially if it was just the rear


But as far as fitment goes i've heard nothing but great things about the kami kit

i disagree.. P Tunings time attack car runs the kami rear bumper with rs1 sides and i think just a splitter in the front.. looks really good.

ehh i was just going to get the lip but too many deep scratches that would cost just as much to fix as would be to buy a bumper

well yeah if he adds some skirts and the splitter it wouldn't look as bad but if he JUST got the rear bumper it would just look weird

your best bet would be to just run the oem bumper. get it repainted at a shop and call it a day.

if you were to run just an aftermarket bumper, i would probably post your ride in the rice thread. lol

so what if you have an rs 1 front lip. it would still look way off, but it's your car. i don't make the payments. you do what you wish.

just don't have iKONA do the paint work, lolz
