GTR Front Lip

Hey guys, I just got done making a lip for my GTR front bumper. Let me know what you think.






Excuse the dirty car. Thanks.

looks ok but in my opinion the gtr bumper flares out wide enough without it and the extra lip isn't nessary but to each there own.

I like it, it looks real classy, however it makes the car look too 350Z ish in my opinion. Get a new grille and it would look top notch.

Looks great bro! I like the lip. I agree with the other guys though, put on mesh grille & bottom of the bumper to match.

It looks a bit wide like a farmers combine b/c the GTR front is already pretty wide.

Hmm, not sure on this one, like everybody said our bumper flares out quite a bit already. I like the fact that I had them take some of that flare out of mine when they prepped it. It does look clean though...

Grill looks great, emblem does not. Much prefer it without emblem.
