HFP. The downforce lip sticks out too much, and has really odd lines for a lip.

HFP lip kit is 100000x better than downforce IT blends with the body of the car perfectly

I fail to see the point of a down force lip kit on a FWD car that isn't going to be used in racing ect, almost like sticking a "park bench" on one of these cars. If its you DD and your looking for aesthetics HFP is the way to go.

HFP = Stock
so if you want stock go HFP
if you DONT want stock go with the other!
