Thanks man, it was actually a last minute thing. I noticed the fog outside and it wasn't raining so I jetted out the door w/ the camera.

So, I've got this painted Evo-R lip here... what do you guys think, should I put it on? After taking/seeing that last set of pics, I'm really hesitant to mess w/ the aesthetics of the car at this point. I'm really diggin' stock body right now. Ugh, decisions......

Cant hurt to put it on and see for your self. It may look alot better in person. Great car btw, really like the stance too, im aiming at those springs and spacers next.

Test fitted yesterday (phone pic)...

its hard to say really...a few shots from further back at different angles would be nice. I gotta get out and take more of mine as well...what are your impressions of it? I like it, but also like the way your car looks without it too, so clean. I can see why you're having a tough time deciding. goodluck, either way im sure your car will still be sick!

Bigviet23 · 05-03-2012, 09:06 AM

^^^ ageed. the lip looks good and so does the stock look, can always put the lip on and then take it off when your ready to change up the look again

sfearl1 · 05-03-2012, 09:36 PM

trimmed the stock aero piece today in hopes of cleaning up the front a bit. i think it turned out ok... sorry for the quality of the pic!

I agree what are you waiting for?!

I actually like what you did with the stock aero deflector. Flows better with the body shape now.

How did you trim it?

i took a strip of painters tape and masked it following the body line of the actual bumper. i then trimmed off the section below the tape (the two scoops that hang down) with a pair of utility snips/shears. the plastic is really soft and easy to cut. took me about five minutes total

Hey thats clever, and it looks pretty good! Do you have any other pics, Im curious to see it from further back.
I think i might order those springs this week, I keep looking at the pics of your car on that foggy day and it just sets off the car

!
Did you instal them yourself? (thinking about attempting that diy)...I want those spacers as well, did you get the 'bolt on' ones?
