Here are a couple of pics of my Carbon Fiber replica of the Stillen Lip.

 

Those look great with lighter color cars, pointless on dark cars

 

Wowo- Niiiice

How mucho dinero?

 

not tooo shabby..the lay is hard I am certain cause of the shape but it would look sweet painted on a white car I am sure...does it have any flex or give to it?...

you know the urethane properties are the selling point for Stillens...but the reproduction looks real good.,

 

True, but you dont have to touch up the paint after road rocks slam into it.

 

damm do i wish i didnt have a black max, thats look awsome!

 

lol u just took that pic a couple of minutes ago,, my car is just as wet now here in santa monica

 

sweet man...i like the way it goes with the color of your car.

 

why would it look bad with dark cars. it would look like the normal color untill you got up to it. i am thinkg about buyone for my dark *** green max, then i do not have to worry about paint

 

well with drak green it still stands out a little, on black it point less to spend the extra money on CF because it looks normal.

 

How's your ground clearance...I looked at my car and was trying to picture it with a lip and I would have like a couple inches ground clearance

 

Wow looks good on beige, bets looking max color out there.

 

Ya, the cf looks real good on beige, but I would suggest you to get the clear bumper lights or maybe the jmd smoked clears cause the orange is kinda killing the lip's look. My 0.02

 

Well, what I think is that there are too many colors in front, car is beige, lip is cf, fog and heads are white, bumpers orange....it would match better with clear bumper lights to match the heads and fog, well that's what I think

 

Who made the lip?

 

why not put it on a black car?.. and white? i see all the white cars with black body kits and vice versa..

ah, to paint or not to paint..

and yes, stock corners are pimpin.

 

No, it does not have any flex to it. Its just as firm as fiberglass, and brittle.\
With this lip you have to be carefull. If you bump it, it will crack.

I like mine on white, I wouldnt paint it. It makes it stand out more and gets noticed quick. A lot of other maxima drivers ask me where I got it and when it came out.

 

Thanks for the compliments on the lip....It looks really good on the car. Oh and I hate how the clears looks on my car...

 

................

 

It's cheaper to buy the CF lip then buy the urethane one and get it painted.

CF lip: $350 shipped
Urethane:$210 + shipping.. but STILL have to get it painted. And any decent paint job is going to cost ATLEAST $150 on that lip.

So it's cheaper to buy the CF one. And they look just great on black cars.

And clear corners suck. Stick with orange.

 

Looks rice, I mean nice*

 

i love carbon fiber on white cars. i.e. lip/hood/trunk lid. id love to have all of these. I already have the skyline kit so no lip but i can still get the hood and trunk
nice car by the way

 

I don't really like these CF lips unless they have the matching hoods... looks out of place but thats just me

 

damm u gotta see this beige maxima around ma way, its carbonfiber hood, trunk and some black rims, with a wide body kit. I could never beleve a beige maxima could look so good.

 

that looks nice.
PB looks good with cf. Now lets see the cf hood

 

Soon~! ...............

 

in those first pics the car look likw the lip is resting on the floor. this true or is it just the angle?? or is it me??

blake

 

How come it looks like the fiber is broken up a bit on the corner? and also near the middle? is that just me?

 

Thats a pritty good point but i thought about getting this lip but i would have to paint anyways cause i need to convert to a 97 bumper.But good point.

 

It's the cf weave.

 

I'm sorry, but i'm not a fan of the differnt color lip on the front. in my opinion. Nothing personal, just looks stupid IMO.

 

I understand it is a durable lightweight material, but I think people misuse it. Take for example carbon fiber hoods. Many today leave them unpainted because they want to flaunt that it is carbon fiber, and they've dropped the cash on it. Many would say "Why would you ever want to paint it?!" The whole idea of a carbon fiber hood is to lighten the vehicle for a better power/weight ratio, not something to "enhance" the look of your vehicle with. (Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking cf hoods, just stating my opinions)

-my $0.02

 

Well said. I do not knock CF. But when using CF I believe it should be used to replace a part, not add to an existing part which doesnt help, adding is a form of uncle bens. A dash kit is a good example, you are not replacing anything, just adding extra weight to your car, sure you are adding CF, but it is still a addon and whatever bit it weighs is purely extra. A hood actually improves your car and makes it go faster. When I get a hood I will leave it unpainted for ONE reason. When you go to resale it, people will most likely not buy a painted CF hood for as much, plus what are the odds the person that buys it will have the same color paint as you, and CF can go on any car.

 

time for one for my car

 

looks good man

socal is raining too....

 

Rice PowNz jOo!

 

I'm replacing the stock stillen lip with a lighter one...So I don't think I'm misusing it.

 

looks good

 

I hear what you guys are saying about Cf being mainly used for the weight saving factors in order to increase overall perfromance but cmon guys, our cars are not some super import race car. if you were looking into getting parts for only the "racing" effect no one would have stereos, passenger/rear seats,interior,AC, 18' and up wheels....etc.
I personally like the look of CF.
The lip,wether Stillen or not, painted or CF is a cosmetic mod.
Same as red/clear tails,wheels,and any other kit.
As far as painting a CF hood or any other CF part goes, why paint the CF?
If you want lightweight and are going to paint it, why not get fiberglass.

 

flavor247 has the right idea.

if cf is rice. what about clears bumpers?????? what the hell purpose do those serve?????

that is all. all i have to say is i hope each person takes careful consideration as to how they set up their rides. and not throw stuff on just because. in my case i thought everything out carefully and ended up with a look to my car that i love and that is all that counts.

BTW im waiting for the mullet that took my pictures to e-mail the phuckers to me
