Default Front Lip Spoiler

What do you think of this spoiler? I'm looking for something not too "agressive." I am also considering the TTE. Please let me know what you think of the two. It is a Zairez front lip. i found it on the GT Autosports website.

Thanks.

this is not too bad, but I prefer TTE.

One thing to note, if you have the Zairez front lip but don't have sides and rear, then it'll look VERY awkward. TTE that won't happen.

Something to think about.

Please don't order from GT auto (a business front for something else).

I hate to see another disgruntle member complaining about how he never got his stuff and lost $$.

I also like the style of the TTE better.
That grill on the white car is also too Mercedes like.

Default TTE is the way to go

That lip looks nice, but I agree with Globe, I think without the rest of the kit it may not look "right". I have the TTE and couldn't be happier. It gives the GS enough of a different look yet it remains very subtle. Usually only other car fanatics like all of us here will notice any difference. Unless of course there are two GS's side by side.

here's mine:

Thanks again all!

I know it has robably already been mentioned, however, I must ask the obligatory, "Where can I get the TTE for the best price?"

Thanks.

Mac, A lot of people here including people from Supra forums have ordered stuff from GTauto, wheels, kits, etc...guess what they ended up waiting half A YEAR to get their stuff and usually getting it damaged. So I wouldn't order stuff from there unless I want to waste time.
