Need some help.....

Okay, I'm going to make the story short. A guy in a pickup in front of me on the highway went off into the shoulder and threw a piece of tire at me going 85mph and it hit the front of my Evo and damaged the bottom part by cutting through the plastic. It also damaged the paint by the mitsu symbol but did not damage the plastic

Now here's the question. I'm not really a body kit guy but to replace the front will be over a thousand dollars and for less money I can have a nice looking front end.

The veilside would cover the bottom damage which is the worst. If I got it I would have it done in carbon fiber http://www.veilside.com/veilsideusa/...su/lancer8.htm

There is also the C-West but I think it might be a bit much for me, and I also heard it doesn't fit our US Evo's http://www.c-west.co.jp/aero/evo8/

So what do you guys think. Are there any other front body kits out there and if so who are they and what do they look like. The less outrageous the look the better. Thanks
