Default Vertex of Fabulous???

I am about to buy a lip and I was wondering if you could give me some help haha. Would the Vertex digna kit or the Fabulous kit look better on a matador red? Also, would 40mm offsets for the wheels fit?

Thanks!

quesiton, isnt the fab lip just a direct replacement for the rounded part of the front bumper cap? i ask because my car is a lease and i dont really want to permently mount something or leave any trace of a mounted lip.........

i like the vertex but it looks like its probably mounted with tabs or mounting hardware of some sort.

It uses all the oem bolts/holes, so no extra modifications are necessary.

Fabulous kit gets my vote. As for the rims, I have 40mm offsets for both front and rear. They fit perfectly fine for me. Here's a pic for reference:

Pretty Easy! Just Un-Screw All The Bolts From The OEM Lip I Believe Theres 8 Bolts Or 9..* The Fab Lip Slides Right In!..* Use Same Bolts.
