Gotta say, I think it's the best looking lip, next to the Top Secret lip or a whole new bumper. :driving: I had to do quite a bit of trimming with a bench grinder to get the center carbon fiber piece to play nice with the fang cover, though.

Looks great dude!

I'm resurrecting this because I am about to try the same thing. Any advice or problems that I should be acutely aware of before undergoing this project?

Hmm I wonder if I could make a cf fang cover work with the stillen splitter. I've been trying to pick up a used one to try but they disappear minutes after popping up. I am tired of cleaning the plastidip on the fangs!!!

Looks great! It was a tough decsion between the stillen splitter, evo-r, and ings+1 for me. Carbon Signal have/had a couple tope secret lips on sale in FRP. If I didnt already have the stillen I would of jumped on their deal.

the ings+ fits with no cutting even with the cf fangs.

We all know it's photoshopped so you can kindly :gtfo2:

you dont like my photochop skillz? :ugh:



:rofl2:

Nope, it is too realistic :icon17:

crap, i need to work on this more then... it's hard to make faux bits. maybe i should ask some of the vendors here for insight. lol

haha I considered the Ings, but I have other bumper pieces in mind that line up better with the EVO-R...

haha, well you're wrong...


lol

Hey kenchan-

Does the Ings sit lower than the chin spoiler? I scrape the chin spoiler a few times every day and I'm just lowered on swifts.

The ings have more clearance vs the sport air deflector. :D

Haha kenchan, Ings+1's newest sales representative and promotor.

hahaha... not really. im not a fan of their body kit... nor their ricor wing. :ugh:

Vichtz where are you going to be installing your lip? I'm down in Houston and thinking of getting this lip myself but I want to see if there's any fitment issues first. I wouldn't mind meeting you up to help with your installation if you're close enough. CS is a bit too far though lol.

lol... he's going to go there to critize people's work.

Got it narrowed down to 3 lips including INGS also. Think all that matters now is how well each lip fits. Houston roads aren't friendly and those small dips and bumps will definitely get me.

there is not much more clearance then the chin spoiler, mine has bottomed out a couple times. but im always scraping the big plastic protector piece underneath. i dont know how people go lower.

like my side skirts, i can not make a fist and put it under my car.


either way, the ings is a work of art and worth the purchase

i removed the sport air deflector and the small deflectors forward of the front tire when i installed the ings.

the ings does not go down at all beside the 5mm or watever the thickness of the CF is on the bottom... it appears
lower in the front but it really isnt. just extends out a little bit more forward.

one thing to remember though, the ings CF is not a finished product. you have to sand it down and UV coat it before use.

Sometime next year, probably mid year, I'll be in Houston at the MEPS to swear in (depending on what my OCS board says). If you haven't snagged one by then I'll be happy to swing by haha.

im curious , you take a tape measure to yours on the left/center/right. mine looks lower to me but it could just be the photo

I can lower it some since photoshopped... :ugh: :icon17:

It's slammed in real life...cambered out! :stirthepot:

Hey guys! For those of you that are asking how the fitment on my Lip + Fang Cover combo worked out, it's hard to say.

The issue with the 3-pc lip is the center. It's designed to rest inside the recess with the fangs. So if you have the fang cover, it pushes it forward, and then throws everything out of alignment, where the front sticks out too far. I had to grind the side tabs on the center piece, and to make it all fit together seamlessly, I used black silicone from home depot to kind of "3d mould" the lip together. It actually came out nicer than I thought, and I get compliments all the time about it!

My original plan was to have a shop mould it together nicer, but this way - I'm not committed to the lip - it's still removable and can be sold and used on a regular 370z without the fang cover, and I think the black silicone is unnoticeable unless you look closely. It's no pro job, but it's good enough for me. I'm planning on Amuse down the line, so. :tup:

Well if you ever amuse up and want to sell both combo, you have a buyer :tup:
