Ok, if one wanted to upgrade the look of the front bumper, what would be the best way?
1. Replace the whole bumper
2. Lip spoiler
3. Cut existing bumper and add a bumper upgrade like the RS bumper from LLtek.

I like the cutting idea cause you don't have the stock look with the lip spoiler, and the replace the whole bumper idea is big $$$$$. The cutting also kinda scares me though....

Thoughts, experiences, etc...

Thanks!

If you don't have a problem with cutting your stock bumper (such as if the car was a lease) that would be a good option. I have the SGI RS4 look front which required my to cut my stock bumper. My body shop molded the 2 pieces and it looks just like a whole bumper. Lip spoiler is always the easiest and cheapest way to go. But make sure it's a U.S. version cuz a lot of German parts don't fit U.S. bumpers.

One of the reasons why I went with the full front bumper replacement was because it got rid of the headlight washers. I like a very clean looking car, smooth lines. The headlight washers took away from that look. Anyway, it really depends what you are looking for in a bumper. I have the Caractere full front and love the look. I decided against the lip because of the non-integrated look it gave me. Anyway, get the style you like and make sure it fits right. The worst part is when you get something and you can tell it doesn't fit right when you look at the car. Just my opinion though...
