Both will fit a MY99 car.

STi6 is pretty subtle but tidy's up the front, P1 is and more aggressive.

The P1 front spoiler also 'drags' on those humps in the road if the car is lowered at all !!

I’ve currently got a stiV6 lip on my car, but I have always liked the original P1 lip spoiler. Agree with richewong looks more aggressive and has better lines. But either will do as the bumper looks pretty plain without the lip.
I would not go for the look alike P1 spoiler; I just don’t like the look of it.
I would have a look in the member’s gallery at the different lip spoilers & depending on what you like then go for that

The copy P1 lip spoilers looks identical to the original except it’s made from (GF) so its cheap but not so sure if they can withstand the odd bump or too.
You may have to be more aware when parking (high kerbs) tackle speed bumps more carefully especially if your car is lowered and with the odd high kerbs, servicing taking the car onto various garage ramps etc.
