What to do about my front end

I have a Chin spoiler (pictured) that is yellowing from my clear coat job I did at home years ago. Its actually so bad and noticeable that I took it off last fall. So.. since it need to be repainted at the least, I'm thinking of some other options. I could go with the GT350 Apron and keep the bumper, or get the GT350R apron with bumper delete, or just repaint the chin spoiler and keep as is.. or leave the front valance stock as it is right now. I'm also open to other opinions. I understand that I'd lose my front vanity plate in some of these, but I'm fine with that.

I think it would look pretty good repainted.

Arin, maybe help me out with the title?

also, I've seen those one piece apron/chins before.. I think both would be a little too "in your face" for me.

I think Arin already messed with your title twice. He changed it from "do" to "two" and now to "to"

You might want to get him to delete all this trash and get back to the real topic.

Cody, Your Stang looks really good with the spoiler the way that it was painted. I say keep it the same and dont mess with a good thing. That spoiler gives that car its looks.

If the GT350+splitter is too much.. I'd lean towards the GT350 with bumper. The bumperless look is cool, but on a street car it starts to look empty imo.

and gary, at least its fixed now :P
