Looks good. Love the TTE lip. I also used the 3M Window Weld, that stuff is strong.

lol yea thats the lip that journeyed from cali to ny! I was paranoid over every little bump and im at stock height, especially in ny all our parking areas have these cement stops or 4-5in high sidewalks, i find myself reversing into every spot now so i wont nick the lip.

i just cant like this lip as much as i try. i just dont think it flows well and doesnt look like its meant to be there. that said most lips/lip kits i feel that way about. but i dont really want fibreglass stuff so im stuffed haha

i guess it is better than stock front bar though, i dont like how it curves up in the middle :P

Looks good. It helps bring out the GS body. Can't wait to install mines...it's still sittn in the garage.

On a black car i think TTE is a better option than the more expensive front lips.
For me the TTE is abit too simple, i really like it but i like more agressive lips like Wald or Silk Blaze.

TTE lip is like whoa!! Very Nice
Before I mount mine I would have to readjust my my coils cause my front is sitting too low for me & NY roads is not the best.

You are just holding a TTE lip you're not even using. JK!! TTE always looks great, never seen one I didn't like!
