I'd keep it without the grille.Remove the center bar, and remove the horizontal bars on either side.The ones that seperate the large and narrow cutouts.Basically, make it with one big cutout on each side.I think that'd look better.EDIT***** Or fill in the narrow bottom cutouts,so you only have the larger ones at the top.

As far as the corner splitters, I don't know if I'd mess with that or not.It might not look too good since the bumper already kinda has corner splitters made into it.

madtib has a point about the splitters... as for the rest. I like it with the upper grill in and the centre bar gone.. might look a little more stock, bit it will be a more subtle ubgrade

I agree with Mad-Machine there, about the lack of grill between the headlights - reminds me of an integra.

But I honestly think that that center bar should go. Leave everything else alone. Don't mess with the lips. With the center bar gone and a grill for the whole thing, it'll look pretty mean!

Good luck with the decision.

I agree too. The bumper does look like its missing something without that grille. I also like the removal of the center bar.

As for the lip kit... I think it looks better without them.
