WaspGT Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I really like the look of the side skirt lips, that's a nice finishing touch. I'm not sure how I feel about the STI lip, though. The canards (air dam wings) on the sides look like they should be straight as opposed to pointing vertical. As in, if we cut a section out of the wings inner crevice so that we could pull it up tighter to the sides of the front bumper. The front of the lip should appear to slope downward and remain close to the ground to channel the air resistance up and into the front fascia entrance, then into the radiator; as well as excess air pushed to the sides and through the wings for stability. It is true, this lip can pretty much be just bolted on, but it looks odd. Here is a shot of this plastic POS on my car, I've had it installed for the last year. Forgive the shitty iphone photography.

AWDrift123 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Hmm...I kind of like the way it looks "flat" on the front lip.. It matches the side and rear pretty well. Kind of gives the wider body look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swansack Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I would love to do this, but I don't think I could get up and down my ramps for an oil change without pulling off the bumper every time.

dug-e-fresh Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 My car on stock suspension, the lip just clears my ramps... If I was lowered I'd have to drive up on 2x6's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famaya26 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Pulled the trigger on a BaysonR lip. $89.99 and no gaps http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/03/18/ahu8umuv.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/03/18/u8yty6ab.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWDrift123 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I also drive up the ramp for oil change, no problems. But as mentioned, once I lower the car I would need some wood pieces to clear without damaging... I like my things shiny I use armor-all on all black pieces then rub them down with paper so there's no streaks...same goes for interior pieces!
