IMO, a lip is a great idea... don't dismiss the original lip either. As for rear spoiler... car looks good as is.

Wheels look great!

A '99 Spec Front Lip definitely looks good on a stock bumper, I say go for it. But again like previously mentioned, keep it wingless - it looks great like that.

ive heard that the '99 lip does more in redirecting the air into the bumper rather than stock which lets it flow around the front end

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Why do people get so upset with what other people think. It is a means of expressing your individual tates.

Isn't this the whole reson for customizing your car?

If you like it, great, but beware that people have alot more courage to bash somebody else's preference when they are not "face to face" and hiding behind a keyboard.

You heard correctly if the the bumper in question is a 99 spec as well. As far as the 99 spec lip on a 93-95 bumper, that has yet to be proven.

The R1/R2 lip was intended for the earlier models and wind-tunnel tested to make it as efficient as possible.

I just put a 99 spec lip on my montego and I think it looks great. I think it complements very well with the lines of the car and adds a needed lowering effect to my non lowered (yet) FD.

If you match the color of the lip, it won't appear to "stick out" as much. Black on black for example will blend...while black on red or yellow for example, will obviously be more evident. Some people like it...others don't.

GTN's look good. Get the lip, leave the wing off. Wingless is where its at. Lower the car and it will look real nice. Have fun, it looks nice.

Be offended all you want, its my own opinion. Im not bashing your car, i dont like the "LIP", relax, your car fine.

I dont care if you want to bash my car, it doesnt bother me, if you want find a picture of a stock looking silver 93 touring if it makes your insecurity feel better, and bash away.
