Yes u can, I had to do something similar to that.

Humm ture. You might break the fang cover. But sanding down the center lip will be hard too. You might need to cut the fang while it is on the car.

im planning on using a dremel with metal cutter bit to trim parallel along the top portion of the center CF bit... would that be impossible to do? :confused::confused:

chuckd05 09-20-2010 10:28 PM

John im guessing it wasnt installed ?

kenchan 09-20-2010 10:33 PM

EvoR- if you can get me the 3pc CF, i bet you i can install it faster than NYJon. :D

As long as you have nerves of steel cutting that close to the bumper itself, then you should be able to. One slip and it is game over for the OEM bumper though!

kenchan 09-20-2010 10:57 PM

right, so im not going to be cutting the CF fang and planning to trim the center CF piece of the lip at my work bench. :p

as long as i am within 2mm i can file off the rest by hand, clearcoat the bare CF edge, and use some black mounting tape to close up any gap between the lip's center CF part and the CF fang... at least that's wat im thinking. :D

atx370z 09-21-2010 12:15 AM

WHy am i the only one that has posted installed pics so far?... i want to see it on another color!!!

Boost_lee 09-21-2010 12:17 AM

Lol, me too!

I think Im going to wait on the install. I want sideskirts and a drop to go with my lip

It's going on Thursday, I've been installing more important parts then alittle front lip. I was suppost to have it installed yesterday, but my installer had a family emergency, so there's really nothing I can do.

kenchan 09-21-2010 07:13 PM

NYJon- we're just kidding around. :tup:

NewYorkJon34 09-21-2010 07:20 PM

I know :tup:

Cmike2780 09-21-2010 07:38 PM

How did your other installs come out nyjon?

NewYorkJon34 09-21-2010 08:18 PM

Good bro, the car is running soo much better, plus my full carbon interior looks great.

Juruki 09-22-2010 04:17 PM

So is this lip sit lower than stock? If it is, how much lower is it?

kenchan 09-22-2010 04:33 PM

looking at the side view pict, the factory lip is lower so i think you're okay.

It doesn't lower it at all thank god. I still cringe every time I scrape the driveway apron with the factory chin spoiler.

metz 09-22-2010 06:44 PM

Newyorkjon, let's see the carbon interior!!!

NewYorkJon34 09-22-2010 09:05 PM

^no problem, I'm going to make a thread on it.

chuckd05 09-23-2010 11:36 AM

kenchan 09-23-2010 11:54 AM

NYJon- looks good :tup: but the fang needs paint and spacers for the wheels. :D ;)

Cmike2780 09-23-2010 03:43 PM

-The lines really flow well with this lip. That looks really good NYJon. Even without painting the fang.

-The "mustache" would def look better if it were CF.

-You could paint the center piece white, but that would kind of defeat the purpose of buying CF.

Boost_lee 09-23-2010 03:57 PM

damnit Jon, just when I thought I had made up my mind on painting/not painting

looks great!

You need to paint it, or at least spray a clear coat. The paint it comes with is just way too prone to scratches.

NewYorkJon34 09-23-2010 06:22 PM

I'm going to buy the upper carbon piece, but he is 2 weeks behind.

Jordo! 09-23-2010 06:56 PM

That looks great!

I am also torn between paint match, black out, or just leaving the center section out entirely for the large labia look :icon17:

destinyZ 09-23-2010 08:11 PM

finally! looks good :tup:

chuckd05 09-23-2010 08:16 PM

Nice looks good. My shop has mine painted but can't do my fangs until next Thursday.

I'm gonna go with paint matched lip and same trim black on the fangs that I used on my rear valence.

Can someone who photoshops make the lip all white and his fangs black in either pic ? Rep point for that if possible, im a amatuar photo shopper, ill use paint with a spray can but it wont come out very good, haha...

chuckd05 09-23-2010 08:18 PM

I think this lip would go well with the sunline sides and rear or the s tune skirts ( that come paint matched ) and sunline rear...

Isn't too in your face enough to require it though.

Rep point for NY John for taking our abuse and finally getting photos

NewYorkJon34 09-23-2010 08:49 PM

^lol, thanks bro

6spd 09-23-2010 10:05 PM

kinda looks like the pincers ants have on their mouths:

http://www.ecosherpa.com/images/ant2.jpg

but i would look great with a complimentary kit, side and rear.

370Z JT 09-23-2010 10:39 PM

nice pics. would look awesome in CF i reckon.

christian370z 09-23-2010 11:13 PM

That truely is gorgeous, I now know what lip I will be going with in the near future. It was worth the wait, nice Z Jon!
