yeah, my first choice is Toms lip but have to have it paint match since my F is white( SFP) but that would be close to $2k ( da wife may kill me for this. Second choice? i couldnt decide btween the Lexon and the Auto Couture, they are both nice in there own way. What do you guys think?

Here's another Lexon "style" front lip. I wrapped it in vinyl after an unsuccessful do-it-yourself sanding and rattle can paint job. Couldn't bring myself to spend upwards of a grand on something that was likely to get get destroyed (even though it has lasted surprisingly well thus far). My car:

I know bro but because of CF (black color) on white car making it look like its missing partial bottom part of the bumber, in the pictures. Have not seen it in person so that is my thought for now. If i own a darker color car or other than a white car I would not painy it. But I will put it on first w/o paint and will decide the outcome. Happy modding

Could some gents in CL create a thread so members could vote their favorite Front Lip since we are at the end of this generation. I dont think any new Lip will be out, too busy design for the 2014 models

Because you don't sound like it. FYI, I don't think you mean bumber because it has nothing to do with cars. I suspect you mean bumper.

Anyway - we can add a poll to this thread. Post a list of the lips you'd like to see and we'll put it up.

Before we go crazy - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...p-spoiler.html already has a poll. LMK if there are other manufacturers you want to add.

I wish we had a bigger carbon front lip....bigger as in like, all these front lips just look like thin little pieces that go under the front bumper. Just seems like a lot of money for a little thing that's gonna get banged up.
