I want a new front bumper

I wanna get a new front bumper for my 4th gen civic. I aint really got the cash for a full kit. I just hate the look of the front bumper. I want a bumper that won't make the car look odd. something that will look good without needing to get the whole Kit. Anyone got any ideas?
Cheers guys.

IMO I like my front bumper. The wings west looks good, but just a little to over done.

Re: I want a new front bumper

that last pic looks horrible, like the bumper got heated up and smushed.

that first pic is an 88-89 front bumper with a lip and fog lights. it looks pretty good

Re: I want a new front bumper

Stock bumpers with lips look tight...

Wings West Bumper is very square-like but looks tight when side skirts and door caps are fitted and rear (so the whole kit)...

That R33/34 bumper just looks wrong. It's not as square as the Wings West bumper but the turn signal lights just don't mesh with the headlights. Just looks weird IMO.

Re: I want a new front bumper

Yeah looks wierd cause it had a huge FMIC behind it. So it had to be pushed out a little to fit. The fenders are also molded to the bumper so I can't realign it unless I bust the fenders apart and do it again.

Re: I want a new front bumper

stock bumper+lip imo looks good. if you have a bumper like i do(88 DX), you can try going for a the stock bumpers that have those fake vents.
