Best as in what? Looks, fitment?

It also depends on what type of style you want to go for.

I love AC and Vertex. But those are pretty pricey. Probably about $3000 for the full kit.

I would say stock with a lip, auto couture kit, or vertex kit.
I would just buy a lip so that you can have more money to spend on other stuff regarding the car.

Auto Couture like everyone says or keep the 97+ OEM and add a SC4 lip and you will have the perfect look!!

your car is already a 99, so you should just hop up in that big win front lip group buy and call it a day as far as aero goes.

i just bought the car like five months ago. my boy was telling me to keep the body stock. i only really want to add a lip to the front and rear. most kits ive seen with exception to the front bumper look like mine. but i havent seen any front lips to fit my bumper. i like the auto couture front bumper so do anyone know where i can get it? i already ordered fender from L tuned.
