New lip

[SLVRfleet4]

I'm looking at getting a front lip for my 3 and can't seem to find one for the 5 door any ideas?

They make a few and they are all crazy expensive.

Feel free to google the home depot mod. ;-)

Thanks I'm was also wondering what is the size difference between the sedan and the 5 door. are the bumpers the same size

 

[fam]

I want to say no they are not the same size. All the sedan\5 door bumpers are different. Anyone feel free to step in.

The Sedan/Hatch are different

There are lips available for the 5 door - look for GV

What year? There is an oem lip for the 07+ hatch that I happen to be partial to

Should be available from 2004-2009

I have an authentic GV lip for my 06 however, there is a vendor here in Canada that makes replicas.

He also ships to the states.

I have this replica. It didn't fit well so I ended up having it modified and custom molded onto my OEM bumper. Turned out awesome and is still holding up perfectly, over 2 years and counting.

baked the lights and stuck them in.... not hard..


as for HID temps.

4300k-4500 is about a stock HID color.

5k is pure white

6k-about 8k is blue

10k+ purple

3k (yellow) has the most visible light. after about 6k you start losing lots of visible light.
