new front end

I have an opinion question for everyone. I have a black mica 99 protege with powder coated black tenzo's. I wanna purchase the street concepts EVO3 front bumper. I called and its only 1-1.5 inches lower that my oem. I dont want the rest of the kit I just wanna change up the front end and make it look different. I have coilovers on so I can adjust to height if needed. But on a all black car with black rims etc... do u think the 1-1.5 inches will stick out like a sore thumb? To me its no different than a civic who sticks on just a front lip. Money isnt what isnt the problem just trying to be different.

thanks
Low~n~slow

Shouldnt be too bad for only one inch.
Although it will stick out, dont think in a bad way though.

pics of the front end and the hood scoop I want to mold in so u get the whole idea. Like I said I like the OEM rear bumper and the clean lines along the side of my car just wanna change the front end. Money isnt the issue just trying to set mine aside from the rest.

IMO that's not going to look right. you need the complete kit. the front bumper is to outlandish for the rest of the car especially if you put that hood scoop on. the front end of your car is going to look to heavy

Yeah, that is quite the bumper! You'll need the whole kit especially with that hood scoop.
