Personally, I favor the mugen-style lips (though I have one, so I'm a little biased). I'm not saying the type-r lip doesn't look awesome, but I absolutely love how the mugen lip looks. Also, in theory, the two vents on the mugen lip direct air to the front brakes, helping cool them. I'm sure this feature is not present in mugen-style lips (like those you'd buy from HMotorSports and StreetStyler), and even if you bought a true Mugen lip you probably wouldn't notice a difference on the streets, but it's still cool to think about. And as for the Jun lip, you could look at Flip's Gallery... he has a Jun lip on his EK.

Type-R over Mugen, but i love my Jun for sure. But even on that note, Mugen can look sick too. Its all up to you.

Get a combination of both, the spoon lip! Erebuni makes a sick spoon style lip, take a look at one, that's what I'm getting for my 4 door. (Just so you know, lots of companies make a "spoon lip" that is actually a mugen style lip, so make sure you know what you're buying looks like, should look like this one...
