Default New Front End Poll

I am looking to redo the front end on my 07 Lexus IS350, it is currently stock. I want a more aggressive look but cant seem to make up my mind on which approach to take. I would like the community of club lexus to state their opinion and help me determine which approach to take. Below are the different conversions/mods I am thinking of doing with pictures in this order:
1 - Stock (front/rear to understand the look I am going for; the rear will have myride diffuser installed soon)
2 - C-west Front bumper (painted to match car with the center bottom piece under lower grille painted black)
3 - 2014 IS front bumper conversion (painted to match)
4 - Couture Vortex Front Lip (painted to match with bottom middle piece under lower grille painted black)
5 - if you have other conversions/mods that look aggressive that I have not listed, please mention it. thanks for the help guys.

It does look like the 14 conversion is the favorite so far.

14' conversion is really nice if you can afford it. Otherwise if go with the C West bumper and save the rest for more mods.

Leave it as is. 14 conversion needs a lot more to work.

If you really want a lip then maybe FIVE:AD like quick123 has. Very nice and clean.
Also GFX is nice.
