Default To lip or not to lip, that's the question
At the moment my EG coupe has the OEM lip, but I have a wingswest RS lip laying around.
I can't decide if I should put it on there, I'm afraid it will make the front bumper look far more lower than the rest of the car.

What it looks like now:


Just to be sure, some pics of what a RS lip looks like:

The mudflaps hang so low, that it looks funny without a lip that hangs a little lower. The car is sex otherwise!

I guess I'm just going to put it on with some ducttape to see if it looks right.

It looks clean the way it is, but I agree with most others. Upgrade to the new lip.
