i like the Lexon front lip. i think its cuz i never see cars out there with em. i like the originality of it i think. i definitely dont think it make the car look "cheap". thats a bit harsh...

DOn't pay him any attention. He says negative stuff about everything.

I love that splitter type lip. It keeps the original front intact while adding some aggressiveness. Since I like the front already this is just perfect for me. Hopefully they have a rear splitter too.

^ my car rides fine with them? I did read this also. I have Ichiba Type II 20mm spacers with the OEM Gspyder 18x8 rims. I dont have run flats so maybe that was the issue? this is my winter set up...

Rims are on order. ~ 4 mos wait or less I am thinking with things being slow but that may result in a longer wait time for shipment from overseas.


Thanks for the compliments I know its not for everyone but to me for a lip kit on the front its the best looking kit. If I was to do the full bumper front/rear there are better options but this is my daily driver and want to get a toy so I dont want to get to crazy with this car. I personally and probably the only one that doesnt care for the PB kit on the front. The sides are rear look okay and flow better with the car but the front just doesnt flow with the front and I like the body lines on the front. But to each there own.

I am sure with the windows tinted and the rims on it will piece together pretty well.

edit: so what is your opinion on the Lexon emblem or what ever you would like to call it. Its a small piece that goes on the front of the lip and the lip has a special place for it. I personally like it with out but you can see how the designed the lip for it to be there. I am probably one of a few that would ever notice it but just curious what you would do or anyone that may have this lip also.

Thanks!

Hi Mike,
Nice car. I have a question regarding the tires. I can put 245-45-18 instead of 245-40-18 tires on? Will it be ok? Thank you.

I havent tried but I dont see why that wouldnt work. most importantly are you lowered or are you going to lower. Maybe someone else has tried this. I am 245-40 for my winter tires on the GSypder rims.
