MS A-spec bumper with Amemiya sleek lights ???

So my question to you all is will a Mazdaspeed A-spec front bumper match up with a set of RE Amemiya sleek headlights?

My concern is that it will be too much acrylic up front. I am sure the A-spec bumper lights will make up for the lack of lighting from the Amemiya light kit which would make it practical but my plan is to sell this car for profit and I would like to make it look good.

Other front bumper options would be,
Garage kagotani
99 Spec with lip
Panspeed

I like the 99 spec idea because i can get away with out putting on sidesteps which I am not a big fan of because they all seem gawdy.

If I go with Kagotani or Panspeed I will most likely need to add sidesteps, in fact I will probably need them if I use the A-spec bumper as well.

Ok any opinions are welcome (good or bad). keep in mind I am trying to make this car to appeal to the masses and not my own preference.

I cant find a pic with the A-spec bumper and amemiya lights.
All pics taken off yahoo images.

99Spec (kind of liking this option the most atm)

Yes, in my opinion. It looks pretty good with the east bear light kit when I tried it in my FD. But it may not be your taste

thanks for the response rx7fighter.

I have decided to go with the panspeed bumper for the time being although I do hag3e the mazdaspeed bumper as a back up.

I am bit confused with the center piece on the Panspeed bumper, I am not sure but it seems like it might actually be removable! Now I just need to figure out if I will use sideskirts and also if I will use rivet fender flares...???
