The black one has a lip, the yellow one doesn't.
I personally feel it adds a lot to the car. Not only that but it came stock on select 89-90 240's so it doesn't require you to deal with Japanland prices. Or do you? These pieces of plastic run from 75 to 150 bucks for one in good condition. Why do you ask? Because people put them on bumpers they weren't made for. For example the silvia front bumper and the "chuki" i believe they call it bumper. It is often done poorly (when done right however it looks good), but then again so are a lot of cars in general by people who don't take the extra time and effort. It angers me that there are so few left floating around in good condition for many reasons. Primarily because they are so damn expensive. They are getting more and more rare and I don't understand why a company hasn't replicated it. I don't want a different front bumper, I want a pignose with a pig lip. So I have to shell out 100 bucks for something that some people crack and scrape and don't give a shit about. I will either buy one and suck it up, or I won't... and probably be slightly disappointed in the way my car the looks. IDK yet because my preference in the way cars look constantly changes. I mean, I will like my car regardless, but I could always like it more. I will probably buy the lip. It is cheaper than some aero bumper that I will like less than my pignose with the lip. I am not a cheap-skate, but where I can save money I will. I just won't mickey mouse shit in order to do it.
ps... I am constantly changing my mind on what I want engine wise. My most recent thought, RB20DET. Same price as a KA24E-T, DE-T, CA18DET, and cheaper than SR's, so on and so on. It has more torque, a very reliable 200hp opposed to a sohc with 160k on the clock. idk, we shall see. First things first, get the damn car here and make it drivable so you can stop driving your TC to 240 meets...
