Default Urethane front lip kit on eBaY

Ok, I really like the look of this lip from ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/03-05-06-SCION-X...QQcmdZViewItem
It's basically $125.00

THEN I came across this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/PU-03-04-05-06-S...QQcmdZViewItem
It's 155.00
It seems to be the same lip, but with the rest of the front bumper as well.

Here's my dilemma... Should I save the 30bux and go with the cheaper model, cause it's the only part I really wanted in the first place, or should I go for the whole front end?

Do you think one would cost more to get painted?

Does anybody know how either of these fit? Cause if one fits well, and one is a hassle... that would make the decision right there.

Thanks in adavnce everybody!

I do not like how the front lip sags in the middle. I have heard nothing very good about the R33 kit you have shown either.

Avoid fiberglass here in Michigan.

How Hard is it to get this lip to fit? Is it direct bolt or is extra work needed?
