No joke. I'm on my second carbon lip and now have a spare urethane one on the way that I will keep painted and in the garage. Then again, I'm even lower to the ground with the new front bumper PLUS a chin lip.

DAMN! I need to move to a better climate with better roads!

That front lip looks AWESOME and I am dying to do it. However, I also know I would knock it off in about 2 days.

I am SOOOO jealous.

Yup, it is low. I need to take driveways at an angle but so far so good. Besides it is not my daily driver. It looked just too good. I had to do it.

I have the Cargraphic RSCs on the way. My bold opinion (meaning that this could be a confrontational thing, which I don't want) is that I'd stick with a company that actually has a clue about racing. TechArt has heavy wheels and all that. It just makes me wonder what the pedals are like (as in, slippery or something). I'll tell you how they are.

You already destroyed the 1st CF lip on your car? Damn that can get expensive

Let me know how the TechArt pedals are and where you bought them. I am curious. Take it easy on the CF lips! Hard angles in those driveways!

Manhole in a construction zone at night with no light on it whatsoever. Scared the **** out of me. I felt like killing someone in a hard hat.

Hopefully you guys like the look. Pictures don't do it justice. The front lip totally changes the whole car. What do you all think?

I may add Tubi mufflers GIAC flash and that's about it. I want to keep my mods light.
