Default chin spoiler or new bumper?

Im thinking I def need somthing to beef up the front end. Im thinking of getting a chin spoiler (painted) or maybe just a new bumper.

Im just not sure if its worth the xtra money prob around 1500 when its all said and done. It does seem like alot for just a bumper. I could use that on some other things. Hahaha now im talking myself out of it!!

Anyways, what would you do?

FYI Im thinking of getting the C-series cervini front bumber kit.

Its about 1/4 down the page, red with white stripes if you wana take a look.

Thats a nice bumper but I don't think its worth the money. Personally if I had the V6 front bumper still I would go with the 3D carbon front lip which is really nice, or I would go with the GT bumper IMO looks more aggressive and that is what I have aswell and you can add a chin spoiler onto that.

I have the 3D Carbon air dam. Cost me under $200. Painted it myself. I love it and it flows really well with the shape of cars.

I'd go for a chin spoiler or a different and cheaper urethane front bumper (Street Scene, GT/CS, Roush, etc)

Wow $200 is a pretty good deal. They usually kill you on the shipping though

I was thinking of mentioning the fact that the C-Series was fiberglass, but on their site it says Fiberglass and Urethane. God for bid you hit something with that fiberglass the bumper will pretty much explode.

$200.00 Sounds like a great deal, however it doesn't cover shipping, correct?
