Default Prototype carbon fiber lip for EG! original design

I thought you guys would dig this. Let me know what you think, me and a friend may be manufacturing this lip once we get it perfect.

what do you think would be fair? It will at least as nice as a VIS or fiber images but not in a played out style.

I have seen this lip in person and the quality is phenomonal. If I had an eg I would rock it. All of you would be super impressed if you got one.

Thats a pretty bad-*** lookin lip. I think it flows pretty well with the front end as well. If you had em for the EK's, I'd buy one.

I second that. I would like to see that lip on my 4 Door, for that price too. I can see it suits the 2/3 door bumper stylistically, but methinks its functional too. It looks like something those tohge maniacs in Japan would make. The lip might diffuse air someplace better than stock would.

Just one thing. I think the corners need trimming to streamline it. like right near the wheel well could be curved in or something.

It may be aerodynamically tested in the future but as of now it is just a made up design.

This style lets a little more air through the front side vents (which could be routed to cool the brakes) so its air dam effect might not be as effective as other designs. Plus it isn't very tall compared to some lips. I have 5" of front clearance on my car. I'm not sure how the protruding horizontal/splitter-like part would effect it, that is why we need to test it.
They are not for sale yet, we need to refine it a little.

How many front lips and front ends on the market are aerodynamically tested? C-west right?

That is one of the nicest and most original lip that I have ever seen.
