2013+ Carbon Signal V2 front lip

I went with the V1 version to reduce the chances of me scraping it. But I've already had to fix it twice anyway

I'm wondering, what part of the lip is catching the most? The front-most end?

Considering a lip again as my OEM chin spoiler is apparently going. Could just be the pictures, but this CS lip doesn't look like it goes any lower than the OEM piece and sweeps upward a bit.

Hey is the 2013+ Lip V2 for non-widebody 370Z?

Reason I ask is because all the pics of the V2 lip I have seen on their FB page is on Widebody(extended flare) 370Zs. Havent seen a pic of it on a non-widebody yet.

The widebody kit doesn't change the bumper
There are some add ones toward the wheel well but it doesn't affect the lip mounting

I will be putting car in shop next month. The body shop is also putting on my Carbon fiber Duckbill spoiler.

They will paint V2 lip. Gotta lite sand and clear coat UV on spoiler.

I will post soon as it's done.

Got two quotes. Went with higher quote. Shop guy do awesome paint and repair.

Should have bought RFP Duckbill. Little ruff. Weave is ok

The SS lip will be closer to ground I think. The roads in my state r terrible.

I'm gonna hold off on lowering car. If I do I'll use Ark GT-f springs. My lip shipped from NY.

The outer area under the DRL's is where I've had some scrapes, but this will be the case for any spoiler you choose. Both were my fault. Once exiting a gas station where there was a slight dip, and the second time I got too close to the curb when parking. You eventually learn to be careful and be aware of uneven surfaces :-)

Whatever spoiler you install make sure you get a clear bra or some type of protection against the rock chips. Even with a quality paint job it will get damaged. It's not nearly as durable as the plastic front bumper. I've already had to repaint. I found out my wife was driving to work through construction zones and they are scraping the roads!! Now she drives another route.

Here's what I'm talking about
