Carbon fiber front lips??
I was about to buy the SE tuned (AIT Racing) carbon fiber front lip, when I noticed my oem GFX front lip kit that was installed by dealer, had 2 slots cut into each side of the corners of the bumper to install two brackets to support GFX kit. Good thing, I was doing a quick check over before I bought the CF lip.
Pretty bummed that the dealer would cut slots on the bumper, I wish I knew this before I decided to get it. Not dwelling on it however, that's just the way s*** goes.
So my next question to all you guys out there is, what carbon fiber front lips are out there that would cover up these slots? I know there's Seibon, but I'm not a big fan of it. I've got an 07 IS350.

I didn't cut into anything myself, it was the dealer. I'll post a pic in a bit.

When i changed my GFX front lip I noticed those same BS holes on mines too :\. I was pretty pissed, but I bought an ings front lip and it obviously clearly covers the holes. But yes, that is the correct way to install the GFX front lip.

You can still install the front GFX lip kit. Just make sure to tell whom ever is doing the install, "DO NOT CUT MY BUMPER", and your problem is solved.

Good thing for us is there are plenty of other kits out there that will cover theses holes.
