I agree...I was originally thinking just for pics and to get to work until the spoiler arrives. At it sits (mocked up), it is not drivable. I sent a PM earlier to team to see if he still has his piece for sale.

So are you going to have to drive around with just a hacked up air dam until you get that piece? Sucks!

I believe I will be able to buy Team's spoiler so it is just a matter of time now. And no, I'm not going to drive with a hacked up air dam

I bought the spoiler from Team Unfortunately he will not be able to ship it until next week.

Anyway here are some daytime pics that do NOT do it justice! This lip is so sick!!!

LOL, there goes your exclusive status, pdxhak!

Oh, and I know you were tossing around the idea of new wheels, but I think the new lip compliments the wheel color really well. I'd keep them. Besides, they're a kick *** design.

BTW for those wondering about ride height, the Leg lip does hang lower than the OE air dam. Specifically from the profile. I will try to get some clear pictures from the side showing the front splash guard.

If you look at a car with the OE air dam and splash guards then you will see the guards are lower by a good 1"-2". Looks to be about even with the Leg lip but in reality the guards are 1/4" lower. I did not think about measuring the OE air dam from the side before removing it so no before numbers.

Welcome to the club the rubber protectors between the lip and the bumper ned to be stuck down or you will loose them and scratch up your bumper pretty bad.

Cheers

Thanks It is not permanently mounted so I will be sure to do that. What did you use to make them stick?
