That ww lip looks like the Racing Beat lip.Not a bad upgrade for the money tho.I love the 99 spec or GTC fronts.But to each is own.Every person will have thier own opinion on this matter.Choose what you like and stick with it.

The stock body is pretty good. I think the front turn signals are outdated though. That is why I upgraded to the 99 front. I haven't found a pair of sideskirts I like though.

The 99 is nice but it has that fugly license plate mount.

Everything else is fiberglass and unless you're the best fg fabricator, they all look like wavy *** ****, especially if you have a dark color. That waviness ruins the line

of the FD. And they all crack due to the stress of driving.



The FG or CF hood; they look like **** too with the waviness screwing up the light reflecting off the paint.



If I were to get any kit at all, it would only be the 99 without sideskirts or a WWII B-29 wing in the back.

I like the Cwest front bumper, actually that first pic looks pretty nice! Stock 99's look great, especially the one w/o the license plater molding.

IMHO there are too many nice ones out there.



Just pick one that fits you. Like dont get one that hangs

low if you have to go up and down sharp grade hills all the

time.



Also if you pick one every one else likes, styles will change and

so will peoples opinion. So unless you want to change your

bumper every year or 2 then get what you like man

Another option that you might consider is the 15th anniversery mazdaspeed fender flares. i like the way they look. you can find them at rotormotorsports.com for $689. there are more pics at rotaryextreme.com

I think you should at least go with the 99 front end. I think it looks closest to stock if you like that look. Plus it is supposed to solve some of the air flow probs the pre 99 had. Which I think would be good for you since you have a smic. There are also some front ends that have the vent in the top of the bumper to flow to that area.



Does the 15th anniversary flares alow for wider tires?

Are the 99 kits the only eurathane(did i spell that right)ones?
