Auto Bahn kit plus spoiler?

so i think i'm settled on the Auto Bahn front and side skirts, stock rear, and the MS spoiler. i'm torn between the MS spoiler and just a lip spoiler though ... Does anyone have either set up? or is anyone good enough to photoshop the MS spoiler on an existing auto bahn car? any pics or opinions are welcome...

Thanks

Looks great man. appreciate the post. I think the auto bahn is best complimented with a lip spoiler - but the Ings looks too big. now i have to track down the damn euro spoiler!!

Bump - zoomzoom - do you have any fogs down there? i know d'mix has fogs, but i didn't know how hard it is to get them set in there...

- incoming threadjack -

if i ever got a body kit, i really like the autobahn kit. based on zoomzoom's comments, however, it rides pretty low. Is this one of the lower body kits? If so, i'll have to cross it off my list since I live in PA, home to the worst roads in the nation.

lip spoiler?

http://www.japanparts.com/db/partslist.php

found this at japanparts.com - appears to the lip spoiler i'm looking for but the pic isn't that great. has anyone bought this from them?

also, if i have the factory US spoiler on, will i need a whole new trunk lid if i go with a lip spoiler?

Zoom-Zoom will the Ings spoiler use the stock holes like the MS wing did, and when you switched over did you notice any visible marks and scratches from the MS wing.

yes it does, fits almost perfect for mine. No visible scratches but there are visible scratches from my stock rear spoiler from before.

The kit does ride really low, I don't think you should get a spoiler with it at all I think it will look pretty flush even without a lip spoiler.

dtorre no side shots sorry. These are pretty much all I have on this pc.

Thanks guys.

I like the auto-bahn a lot too. If I had the cabbage, I'd take the front and sides. It does remind me of a Modena.
