Front LIP and Back balance

I don't know what to do here. I just bought the side skirts from an 02-03 to put on my 01 SE. Now I want to buy the front lip and rear balance. Which one should look fine. I want to have it as clean as possible. Can anyone post some pics so I can make up my mind. Suggestions please

The Aero Lip is the clean one from Stillen?
The AE stock one is the Anniversary editon?

yeah, I was gonna say that the AE kit is REALLY expensive and really not woth it. It would be cheaper to get the Stillen rear valence and bondo the holes if you don't like them. I got the Stillen rear valence and wasn't feeling the holes in the pics I had seen. Once it was painted and installed, the holes don't look bad in person.

+1 for the Stillen "Aero" lip, that's the nicest looking lip you'll find for your car.

BTW, the Stillen lip is officially called the Classic lip, not the Aero lip. Aero is the the name of the whole bodykit package that includes the Classic lip.

the stillen "classic" lip and rear valence look great imo. of course i'm biased but the whole stillen kit looks better than the AE kit to me. i parked next to an AE this weekend just to compare the two and the stillen kit just looks beefier for lack of a better description.

i have more pics of my stillen kit in my www link for reference.
