Is it just me or does anyone else NOT like the '99 spec front?

I try to convince myself to like the '99 spec front because I know it's a popular mod, but for some reason I prefer our stock 93-95 front better. Of course there are some cars that look good with one over the other, but I just don't like the molded in front plate holder on the '99 spec, and for replica ones without the front plate holder, the car looks like it's smiling. So is there anyone else who prefers the 93-95 front / doesn't like the '99 spec front or are you just rocking your 93-95 stock front because you can't afford a '99 spec or are too lazy to change it ? Just curious

hey thanks for that link. I guess everything that comes up has been debated before. Thanks! You can close this thread now.

I should have searched first before I asked...SORRY

^^Thats exactly what mine will look like too, well, minus the hood and efini badges and also in white.

As to the ongoing question of which is better, 93-95 or 99, i honestly like both. I'll probably end up going 99 sooner or later, but right now i'm perfectly content with the look of my 94 front end.

I just don't like how the 99 lip fits on the 93 bumper. It looks so outta place since it doesn't fit right. I had that before, but just got the 99 bumper to match my lip haha.

Yeah the lip sticks out on the side a bit more than i'd like. The r1 isn't aggressive enough though.
