Definetly, the first time I've ever heard the word "dank" in reference to a car.

Ahhh much better AnGe. We like the Stillen lip much better. It's cleaner looking.

So when are we sampling that wine of yours?

Thanks everyone

Change is because the (Stillen) polyurethane lip is much more durable (thus practical) for the NE weather and roads. I drive around NYC twice a month... Front Sarona bumper can only take so much beating. Now, I won't need to worry about cracking the fiberglass kit or it losing its shape. In worst case scenario, I'll just need to repaint the lip.

Vyrus: Sarona front sits slightly lower (and longer) than the OE bumper/Stillen Lip combo.

nymjayjay: I ordered OE aftermarket bumper and Stillen front lip to replace the Sarona bumper.

Arnaud: Sideskirt problem is temperarily taken care of. That will be replaced eventually.

Tom: I'll bring two bottles next time.

BTW- Everything fits so much better with this setup I'll have to go back to the shop and have the front bumper buffed next week.
