Looks horrible with it on.

Keep the 97 the way it is or get a shine auto front bumper.

I am really REALLY liking how they painted the inner part of the center bumper opening and the side openings gloss black. I have seen this numerous times now... really good stuff!

Not bad at all, i like it. I guess it depends on people's taste.

Any vendors/ sites that replicate or sell these? except on doing it DIY.

Ahh...my old lip. Brings a tear to my eyes when I see it now Haha....but I prefer my Fujin lip now

Yes the original pic in the first post if a pre 97 front lip to fit a 97+ front bumper....same as mine but mine is more in line with the rest of the bumper and not passing it anywhere.

Nobody makes one that is a vendor or anywhere for that matter.....either have to DIY or find someone who already did it and buy it from them.

Funny enough my pre-97 lip to fit a 97+ front bumper is for sale twyst....definitely let me know Looking for it to go to a good home. Probably will be the only time one will be for sale in a very loooong time.
