Edit: For those of you who wish Boost_lee's pic was just a little brighter so you could get a good look at the lip....

Waiting for customs to clear is killing me... especially after seeing that mock-up. Hopefully Monday.

one thing that's bothering me about this lip is that the factory lines are not reflected on the Evo's lip where it curves around... neither one of the lines are parallel or have any consideration to the bumper's decorative line... it's like the lip is there all on its own.

I think it flows just fine. It's always gonna look like a separate piece unless it's molded into the bumper.

The body line on the front side of the bumper isn't very defined. I noticed it didn't flow well with the design of the lip also when i mocked up one side to check fitment, but honestly, you won't even be able to notice. In boost lee's pic the light is hitting just right to create a reflection to really define that body line.

Anyways, it's going to look badass and i wouldn't have chosen ANY other front lip. Anxiously awaiting for tomorrow to come.

Hmm. Looking forward to seeing both painted and unpainted. Also hope someone will post pics with the center section removed -- I htink it might look good with just the two side pieces.

Here's a photoshop I did with the lip sides painted and the center fangs painted black. It was a quick chop to give everyone an idea.

Keep in mind, the lip started to sag in those pics. Tape started to give way...it was just a 5 min mock up to get pics for those wondering what it looks like

So when installed correctly it sits just a tad higher on the line of the bumper

If you a chance, would you mind doing one with the center section removed?

Personally guys if I end up getting the lip I'm just going to keep it flat black or cf whichever I decide. I think red car with black lip would look pretty nice.
