I hope that helps
What's the rest of your body kit? That flows really nice. Second what are those rims?

Very nice looking car!

To me you HAVE to get side skirts with any lip addition.

Here are some pics of my car with the greddy lip from different angles. Whereas the TTE lip keeps your basic GS flow with little change, to me the Greddy gives a more aggressive stance, especially with RMM Side skirts. Plus for me there is a functional reason for going with the Greddy lip with getting more air into the engine bay for the turbos, and creating a downforce in the front for those 150mph+ runs!

Again, it depends on your what you are looking for. Both give a good enhancement to your car

Like Panda said, he has the OEM Lexus GS body kit (sides and rear). The wheels are HRE 540Rs in 19s.

If you get the TTE lip, you can get away without sides. It adds very little to the front. I'd say it is even less than 1". The thing it does is to fill out the groove in the front of the OEM bumper.

If you get the Greddy lip, you HAVE TO get sides and rear to match. That Greddy is low so you will definitely notice the difference in the bodly line flow.

I am not sure if it is the angle or photo but that does not look like the RMM skirts.

TTE flows well if you intend to keep everything else stock.

Hmmmm Looking at the picture again, Flash's car doesn't seem to have the skirts on. I thought the wheel was hiding the front of the skirt. I thought he had the RMM skirts also.

Again, it depends how you want to go with the look. You definitely will need side skirts with the Greedy, but again, it does give the car an aggressive look.
