OK, car is now in desperate need of a front lip to even out the bigger rear spoiler.

I've narrowed it down to the OE lip, the Greddy lip or the MRO lip, as follows:

OE:

MRO:

Greddy:

Now each has good and bad points. The OE is good as its, well, OE, and one less thing to have to strip when i sell or trade the car. I also think its sexy. Downside is its fairly common. MRO looks very integrated, plus I have the option of a stick on plate and removing the plate mount, but when I sell the car it'll be a pain going back to standard.

The Greddy lip is rare, and very aggressive, but means importing from the states, and I'm not sure it isn't TOO agressive for my tastes.

HELP!!!

Go for the OE.

It is suble & finishes off the curves.
Plus it would be easier to sell your car as well than if you were to have say the greddy.

But then, i would be bias

OE mate

Looks the most subtle but matches the car perfectly IMHO.

Mine has taken some serious abuse including an angry badger at 50 + mph, no signs of any damage except a small area of scratched paint.

Id go with the GREDDY lip. Based on how hot it looks on the cars I've seen in person here in the states.

Greddy definitely!

Where did you get the pic from. My mate knows the guy who deals with Greddy stuff so we might be able to get it cheaper

I like the Greddy but I HATE those black background STi light covers. Body coloured one's coupled with the greddy would be the dogs.

Thanks for all the comments, although I'm more confused now. Seems like its between the Greddy and OE. I know its down to me at the end of the day but I really cannot decide, so I thought I'd get some opinion from people in the know

Here's the clicky link

I would say definitely go for the Greddy if you are going to get the sideskirts & rear valanve to go with it. Otherwise it will look uneven side on.

However, the OE lip is ok if you just go for the lip as many people have done.
