My second lip is about to go. I keep hitting those parking space barriers. I think when my tires lose a little tread, those hundreds of an inch make a difference between clearing and not (maybe it is my imagination). Is anyone selling lips already painted (my car is Artic Silver)? Anyone have better luck painting a lip but leaving the underside black? I also like the C4S style better. Wish I could get a Techart Kit, I think thats the hottest front end look.

 

I've been down this road many times, stick with the OE turbo one and leave it black, unless you like spending mega bucks and like visiting the body shop.

 

ditto, espeically if you're car is lowered. i didn't even consider painting my turbo lip just for that reason.

 

Don't paint and let it scarch the bottom. I think non-paint factory lip look better. If you have Areo lip, thats another story!

 

i think the psi motorsport / orton one looks great, similar to stock, and is polyurethane not fiberglass so relatively easy maintaining it. looks somewhat similar to stock, but spices the look up a bit

 

I paid my bodyshop $520 to repair and paint my aerokit spoiler two months ago. 2nd time. Wacked it again last week. F**k it. I'm going to superglue it back together and paint it myself.

 

So you are already using a C4s chin spoiler?
They do give you a tad more room......but 'parking space barriers' will be in the way of either one. Mine is black on bottom, and coming up on sides into wheel well, w/urathane clear bra.

 

When in doubt, back into parking spaces...problem solved

 

Slap on PDC or curb feeler.

 

The only times I have gotten ticketed for no front plate is when I back in - I think the meter maids don't want to walk so they just tool up and down the parking lot....
