Frank, if I see that pic one more time before I get mine I'm going to flip. So sexy.

My personal favorite lip would be the Varis Front Lip. Zele Bumper is nice too. I like my car to look clean and as OEM as possible. I went with the stillen splitter. Nice and cheap and got it color matched and really like the look of it.

Zele is very nice. I generally don't like Stillen's kit but your lip looks nice!! Just don't scrap!!! ;)

The Top Secret lip is functional.

I think the Stillen one is functional but I'm not 100% sure.

The Top Secret lip seems more fashion with a little function whereas on the other extreme you could get a custom APR splitter for much cheaper that is subtle and fully functional. I'm surprised no one has done that route yet.

stillen. simple, not overstated or obnoxious. cheap and FUNCTIONAL! a feature lost on most aftermarket lips... what a novel conept..

Agreed, minimal functionality!! All are more for looks!!

How much does the Stillen lower the front - if any? I assume it's not as low as the air dam (which I seem to scrape a lot). I've tried to look at side by side photos, but just can't tell.

I vote for the stock Nismo front end. :tup:

The Stillen lip, on a stock height car, has not been a clearance problem for me. I went with the Stillen because it looks good on silver as is so it didn't require painting. Being smaller than most splitters it looked more understated which suited my taste as well. For me it looked more functional and less like a body kit. Several splitters out there make the front look a little too heavy (just my opinion) and need expensive side skirts to balance the visual mass of the splitter.

I wasn't going to get a splitter I didn't like just to have something on the car but the Black Friday Weekend sale at Stillen made it so affordable that it was a no brainer for me.

Having said all the above, I have seen many photos (on this site) of different splitters and lips, with and without skirts and with and without paint. I didn't like all of what I saw but LOTS of them have looked absolutely outstanding. So a big factor is how strong a visual statement you intend to make and how much you want to spend.
