Bomex front lip on Z1 shop car.

Another tally for the "I don't think that looks as good as the photoshop drawing" camp. It looks... okay .

LOL...now that I look at the two pics in detail, the final version looks no different than the rendering at all. This stresses the importance of multiple, real-world photos at different angles before final judgement, although I'm sure the paint-scheme on Bomex's car helps.

Not really...its different enough for all us to puke at.

The sides curve in alot sooner than in the illustration, and that early curve gives the sides that bulbus type of look to it. Also, the center piece didnt look as tacked on as it does now. I dont know, it just looks kind-of big, and needs to be more low profile to look as smooth as it did with the factory sides. I feel this lip would need some sort of sides and rear spats to complete it more...

I rather have something like this...




If someone could develope their interpretation of this little lip kit all around for our cars and make it looks clean and functional, I would buy it.

Who knows, hopefully Bomex decides to flatten out the side and make it look less chunky.
