Hey everyone, everytime I post a pic of my car people start shouting "get a front lip on that thing"...so i finally decided to dust the lip off (which was taken off due to scaping during daily driving) and slapped her back on.


Let me know what y'all think. Oh and the CF fang cover is new thats why the colors dont really match, the other CF parts have aged a little in the sun so are a little less black now.

It looks better with the lip but that lip is really low to the ground, hard not to scrap.

Ya think? I dont, I like the look of carbon fiber thanks for being honest though.

For sure, thats why I took it off however I have a daily driver and I know where most the trouble spots are around town. it definitely takes some getting used to, especially when parking. Makes me want to get a backup cam for the front of the car.

I agree, you have plenty of CF even with the hood... I would paint match it if it was my car.. cf hoods kind of break up the flow of the car... the hood is nice but the cf just looks unpainted from more than 10 feet away anyway.. either way the car is bad *** though..

and the lip looks great and def better with it on

thanks, and I see what you are saying about the hood. I wish I could get some good pics of the hood. it had a big seibon and NOS sticker on it for about a month and when I took them off they left their shadows "ghosted" into the finish it looks really cool, cause you can only see them from certain angles.

You can kinda see them in this pic...
