awesome job. it looks stylish... all we need now are some matching side skirts. With the front end looking lower, we will need to even out the cars look.

I actually got the car raised 3/4 of a inch yesterday so now the car is aprox 6 3/4" off the ground or 7"s.... that makes it Perfect height for this lip =) 7"s + the lip = aprox 5"s of clearance..

TBA. actually, there is a good chance the lip will be made from the same or almost the same material as the urethane cover we have under our engines. so it'll be black. confirmation on that next week.

Your reffering to polyurethane, and yes I hope it is too! Eitherway I have a feeling I will backing into a lot of places now rather than always guessing the clearance / distance.

Looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dont mean to jack this thread but was it a simple bolt on? or did you have to change other things? Can I just change the front bumper and grill without touching the headlights, hood and fenders? want to do the back bumper and spoiler too

if you want everything to look right and fit correctly, you have to change the hood, headlights, bumper and grille. i dont think you have to do the fenders but i dont remember. just search for it. there are xxxxxx number of threads on it..

This is definitely a 2010 mod! Being that winter is coming around it's not a bad thing to hold off a little until its over. Soon as i heard it was gunna be snowing over here couple days ago, I got my stock rims put back on ASAP lol.

I really hope these will ship out before new years cause now im on my winter break and have plenty of time to put it on. If not ill have to wait until spring break when my quarter is over which also helps me out in a way that it wont get damaged from the trips to Tahoe this season.

sorry guys for the long silence, I have been working out of town for my day job company, only update is that they guys over at the manufacturing side are still trying to come up with an affordable molding method, so we are trying to come up with the best and most cost effective way to make this, and by cost effective I don't mean cheap, but well built for a good price, it does seem like thought this lips wont be ready by new years .
