Default New body kit? Opinions needed...

I have gotten a lot of great advice and constructive/destructive criticism from the gurus here on CL as I have been building my GS show car. Well the time has come again for me to consult the wizards/gurus. I am considering getting a new kit for my car to give it a new look and upgrade from my current Vizage body kit. I know you guys have a wealth of information about fitment as well as first hand experience with most of these products. Now the thing to keep in mind is how it will look on my car and my current styling/paint scheme. I will be keeping the Explosion 3 piece rear spoiler because of the air brushing and all of that but I really want a replacement rear and maybe a little gap in the front to show my intercooler. So I have downloaded some pics of the one's that I really like but tell me what you guys think?

Here is my current setup....

Back... This is one of the main reasons for the change I would rather have a replacement rear.

FOr look you want I think the Wald Sport looks pretty good or the RMM.. and you could probably pull off the vertex kit because you have 20's and a nice exhaust..
