Opinions, ugli Front Lips

[skilletrx]

Hey I'm just wondering if its just me, but doesn't it bother you that the autoexe rep. lips hang lower than the rest of your car? I guess it looks hot from a head on view.. but from side view, i think it looks kinda bad IMHO to have the car look like:

s'what happens when you have ground effects on the front and not on the rest of the car. Although this does resemble import drag cars.

True that. It looks nice when you have skirts

I think it looks just fine ... when I added my AUTOEXE LL and GRILL it changed my car's entire appearence for the better.

... oh and sorry for the size.

I think it does look better with half-painted, half- CF. really nice look IMO

 

[KYMP5]

thanks, i like it that way. it matches my cf looking centercaps and the hood that i am putting on it

 

[gjmoreo]

We have some nice rides! ya-hoo!

 

[gjmoreo]

i remember these pics ... that camera turned your red to orange ... haha ... good pics though ...

 

[KYMP5]

yea, my camera sucks. ill get a new one before i start showing this year. ill take some more pics when i get all the cf stuff on it.

i agree, never liked the lips without sides... it looks ncie, just incomplete... just in stock form the car looks like its ass is too high, a front lip makes it look like itll flip if u brake too hard

 

[Matthew]

ok well you should NEVER add ground effects to a stock car without rims and whatnot.

IMO it does look bad on any sedan but a black one to have a body painted lip like that.

I think it makes the front look much too "heavy" if that makes any sense.

I do however like the sedans with the DGM lip because the body color only goes as low as it does stock, and the CF portion hangs below that, so I think it looks tight.

On the p5, I think yuo can go either way. Definitely like the look of the body colored lip on the p5s tho



What i would absolutely ADORE, is some little piece of CF trim that goes on the bottom of the rear valence on a mp3/msp. something really thin in the middle on the back, but that gets thicker as it gets towards the back of the back wheels, like the Spats they sell for subies. And then maybe a simple trim piece that would work well with the spats at the front and back of each sideskirt..........ideally following the lines of the OEM sideskirt.

wont ever happen.....but one can dream
