Default What front bumper?..my car

Here is my car as it sits...just pretty much ignore how it looks. during the winter it will look and perform nothing like it it does now.
This is how it sits currently, (yes, i know).




And here is a rough photoshop picture, of what it should look like after the winter. I didnt get the pic finished, im going to photoshop it with the c-west kit and a cf hood as well.


THe only question I have, Is, I believe my car is Lowered, it has Eibach springs on it, and its a pretty darn rough ride, but looking at the ass of it and the side its really not that low. With this front bumper I cant really go much lower at all because the roads here are terrible and Im currently rubbing everywhere.

I was thinking either a 99-00 front end with a lip, and different sideskirks and rear bumper, or a complete c-west kit (front bumper looks similiar to 99-00, except flows better IMO).

What would you reccomend? To me it looks like the front is lower than the rear really, and it just looks a little funny in my opinion. I would really like to tuck the tires in the wheel well some what. But then the front bumper on there now will drag. Also Im going to be running 16'' rims as well. I know it cant be lowered that much at all if any, becasue the guy before me had konig 18'' and they rubbed very little.

I'd say 99-00 front end w/ lip.

I think it would look way better with the JDM mirrors. I'm not a fan of 96-00 USDM mirrors.

Actually, those are power mirrors. I did the power window/mirror/lock swap into this cx...just didnt fully hook up all the lock parts.

So 99-00 you say...how about the rear and side skirts?

You've got a 96-98 front end, it would be easier and much cheaper to get a stock bumper and an SiR lip

those SiR lips are getting harder/more expensive now.

Im getting a new front bumper, and possibly a carbon fiber hood. I may do the 99-00 conversion. Still not sure. Regardless this bumper is going.
