Car Is Sweet!

1. Of all the threads this is the first one to show a full on view of the Max with a sunroof wind deflector. I've been on the fence about getting one, now that I've seen it (especially on silver) I'm going to pull the trigger.

2. Like the Wing and lip spoiler. How much clearance do you loose with the lip?

seriously how do the 22's ride? i love the look of your car. i have the same color and have been considering the stillen front lip/possibly 20 (maybe 22 now?) inch rims. right now the ride is very smooth though and id hate to change that too much.

do you switch back to your stock rims during the winter or anything? if so is the ride noticeably different?

When you all had your Stillen lip put on, did they get it to fit "flush" against the existing bumper or can you see imperfections in the fit? It almost looks like from the OP's pictures he has a small gap on the sides of the middle where the center piece inserts into the lower grill

I didn't say Stillen installed it. I asked if there are gaps between the piece and the stock bumper. It looks like in the center part, where that piece from the Stillen lip inserts into the lower bumper, that there are gaps. Did anyone need to have their lip sanded before painting to fit more flush to the bumper?

Reason I ask is because mine almost looks like mine is mounted too high and the top edge of it you can catch your fingers on if you run them down the car. Wasn't sure if some people had the piece sanded so it was more flush or if this is how everyone's fit. Haven't been able to find any real close ups of the Stillen lip installed so I can't tell.

I had a buddy install mine and it looks like he put it on crooked...my left side is higher than the right...wonder how easy it is to pull this thing off and re-mount it with new tape...ugh...I knew I should have done this myself...

Do you just pull it off and re-use the same tape? Or do you have to use something to help get it off the car without damaging the existing bumper? And I'm guessing you probably need to use new mounting tape? Curious what kind you used if you just bought some from autozone.

when i pull it off gentle with little force and it will come off. i buy the same 3m tape on the lip from autozone and put it on

cool thanks for the tips. i think for now ima leave it because im prolly just being picky with it being maybe 1/8 to 1/4" higher on one side, you can barely notice it unless you're 2-3 feet away and staring at it. i think at some point in the spring or summer ill pull it off and re-mount it when i have time to work in the warmth. had a few of my boys look at it though and they didnt notice it until i pointed it out and even then were like "ehh i wouldnt worry about it". honestly i am loving it. totally completed the look of the car
