Stillen Classic Lip vs MaxxTuning Lip

Ok guys- I'm trying to end this consensus once and for all for myself, and also help out a few here that are on the fence as well. What you see here is the Stillen Classic Lip that I just got, and my old MT Lip. I have the option of keeping my new Stillen Classic or trading it for my old MT Lip + Cash. I think I've made up my mind on this and will keep the Stillen Classic since it's more low key, and also I'm on Tein SS Coilovers, I'd hate to scrap all the pebbles and ladybugs everywhere I go. What are your thoughts, and maybe others that are looking can see the differences in this thread as well........GO!

I think it'd be more of a fair comparison if the sunlit sand car didn't have the bug deflector and the lip was paint-matched.

I have them both. I like the Maxxtuning lip better but where I drive on a daily basis it was getting stratched at the bottom. I just bought the stillen lip because of that issue. Datadude I will be to Squirrel82's shop on Friday or Saturday to pick up my stillen lip. I could bring along the Maxxtuning lip for you to see. I had plans to throw it away once I got my Stillen lip on.

here's my opinion...I prefer the stillen over the maxx tuning when talking about ALL colors but I do agree the maxx tuning looks better, MUCH better, than the stillen when on lighter colored cars. IMO the maxx tuning on lighter colored cars looks bad.



stillen classic looks factory and low-key...love it!! The maxx tuning lip will however make the car look lower in the front...the cheating lip lol

If you want to look low key go with the stillen but if you want to show all the other great mods on your car go with the maxxtuning. IMO

Stillen Classic. I'm biased, but Stillen Classic any day, any color, any look > MaxxTuning Lip.

Both look best painted.

I like both of them myself, leaning a little to the MT lip.

IMO they both look good but the MT is more rare? In the end i went with the stillen also and i love it. so it all comes down to what you personally want.

I like the maxtuning lip more because it looks slightly more aggressive on darker cars. Mine is an ABS copy, but I like it more than stillen
