Light years better than a cheap and ugly (IMO) home depot lip.
Good work

i did like how the home depot lip looked in the beginning but i started hating it day by day, felt so much better taking it off.

i been thinking lately what exactly is the purpose of these oem lips? i mean what are lips for?....forgive me for such a newbie question

so that less air gets under your car, and you get more downforce

why did you go to the dealer and pay $70 for it, when you could have went to a local junk yard and payed close to nothing??

If you want to be really technical, by reducing the amount of air going under the car it reduces lift produced by the difference in air pressure going over the car verses under the car (Bernoulli's Principle ), thus increasing the perception of downforce. But close enough

dude, i called a bunch of junk yards in my area and no one had it. i've been looking for this lip for a while now, i was gonna go for the autodynamic lip but too much money. IMO the oem lip looks clean

some people have carbon fiber lip there?
oh yeah those look really nice, but how do you think they feel coming in or out in a steep driveway. hehehe. they probably cus and swear like rappers everytime they scrape....j/k. dude i would totally get a CF lip if it wasnt that expensive.
