Opinion on getting NHBP HFP kit to make TW sedan look panda

I have a Taffeta White SI Sedan. I am not really considering any bodykits right now. But I wanted to throw around a couple of ideas around if I ever do want one. Both kits are going to be riding on HFP suspension. And maybe HFP wheels.
One is a a kit consisting of Mugen Rear, Mugen Sides and HFP front lip, all painted in TW. The Mugen parts are not the Mugen SI ones, but these ones http://www.kingmotorsports.com/image.../large/710.jpg
I am getting HFP front because the JDM mugen front doesn't fit unless there is a JDM front end conversion.

Another kit that I am considering is a Complete HFP kit, except I will order it prepainted in Night Hawk Black Pearl (NHBP). That way it will have a pseudo panda look to it. Let me know if this idea is too tacky or is simply not tasteful, or if you think that the idea is great with a thumbs up. Just drop me a line with your opinion.

The panda idea would be hideous IMO.

mm i dont know. i think it might look tacky. u can get panda look by just simply adding black front lip overlays, and cf hood / trunk and what not

hell, i only have the lip overlay and black tails and i look pretty panda

Please do not do that lol - there's other more tasteful ways (albiet - typical) to achieve a black/white "panda" theme. For instance, you can get a CF hood/trunk, APR splitter, front lip w/ black vinyl overlay, etc.
