Wow!
Looks great!

Is the plasticoat easy to apply? Your application looks clean. What brand did you use?

Also, where can I get a set of those front dam covers?

Thanks!

AFAIK aero bumper is no different than non-aero- just the lip is different.

Yeah, someone mentioned it earlier in the thread. I had to select "09" turbo. It doesnt work when you select "07". It's the same car though so it will work.

so, is this lip coming with glossy finish? if we just install it, will it look ugly? Hope some has it on hand could give some opinion regarding the finish.

For reference, mine is an 07. The site is just incorrect stating 09+ only.

Yes, it is a semi gloss finish (prepped for painting I believe). Plastidip is incredibly easy to work with and if you screw up, you pull it off and start over. I think it'd look a little odd installing it as is, though maybe someone else will give it a shot.

The material is similar to the factory lip so it is durable and flexes. I'd rather not hit curbs, but if I do it won't crack like carbon would. Also, the plastidip versus paint will be much more durable and you can touch it up easily if you do scratch it.

Was considering actually buying 2 for one as a spare. Quality worth it? Or just buy one?
