hamann front lip, or splitters for my standard front bumper?

so which one is the best looking? they cost almost the same, personally i would go for the big lip, but still not sure.

just ordered xenons and hids fogs. so i thought i could change the grill and add a lip or splitters.

so which one of theese two?
lip


borrowed this picture from this guide: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=285855

hamann looks more aggressive, and OEM splitters looks cleaner!but please don't do the CF version on a silver or white car, maybe it's just me, i think it doesn't look good unless your car is black or dark blue..

I went from the OEM cf splitters to the CF Hamaan Spoiler! I liked the Splitters, but the Hamaan is nice too. Kinda a toss up for me.

lol mallard, thats wicked. i stole the pics of a shop from denmark. but it kinda makes sense.

but i still cant come to a decision, but will CF splitters look bad on a silver colored car?

bad i drive pretty rough with my car, will the hamann lip hit the ground if i drive too roughly? :P

dont stop the discussion, i cant come to a decision q

I wouldn't keep the splitters CF unless you have other CF parts, wheels, and a generally aggressive setup.
