Third lip... hope it holds

Ellazzar · 07-30-2019, 03:49 PM

Chicago area bumps and potholes.... frustrating

G35POPPEDMYCHERRY · 07-30-2019, 03:57 PM

lips are pretty much as disposable as your rear tires. just buy them on ebay for 300 bucks

ByeFelicia · 07-30-2019, 04:03 PM

^^^ Exactly. If you are buying authentic. I feel bad for you son.

ntg44 · 07-30-2019, 04:47 PM

Lightweight or nothing. Scrape all day.

M3GymNut · 07-30-2019, 05:14 PM

3rd CS lip? Shit by the second one I would have went with the OEM non carbon fiber one. That can hold a pretty good beating.

Lightweight V2.0 is the best lip out there! I've been scraping and it still looks brand new! Seriously the best lip I've ever run. Hella solid too! I had the M performance lip and that thing disintegrated with ease.

Agreed!!!
3rd lip here also

MPerformsnce CF- too common
CS CF - lovely but $
Lightweight - perfection!

Jojipoji · 07-30-2019, 10:41 PM

On my 2nd lip. Roads in ct slightly better than Chicago I guess

Kilabyte · 07-31-2019, 12:10 AM

My CS rep is getting here tomorrow, I'm only on Eibachs but I measured the height of the front bumper compared to my Lexus and they're close, the Lexus scrapes on speedbumps, with the CS lip the M will be lower, what have I done

Ellazzar, OEM or rep? Source?

Edit: Your parking sensor is about to fall into the bumper

Smeargle · 07-31-2019, 12:34 AM

Also second the notion of the lightweight lip. Had some eBay vorsteiner rep and it shattered after a week on NY roads. Lightweight lip withstands all

Kilabyte · 07-31-2019, 01:53 AM

How low is everyone? Let's at least mention that since I'm assuming that nobody is at stock height.

The fool and money are parted considered the roads are not adequate for any road vehicle.. I would suggest anything under $300.

Still on my first CF Mperformance. 5k miles only a couple scrapes underneath from driveways so far.

High Octane · 07-31-2019, 07:37 PM

IDK about you, but I feel like this year we've had more and more potholes in Chicago. IDK how I've kept my lip on with cracking it yet.

Well it would help if they finished a project before winter before deciding to start repaving the entire friggin Chicagoland area.

9M71 · 08-01-2019, 09:06 AM

I'm in NYC and there is literally a 1 ft deep x 4 ft wide square crater smack middle of a busy intersection. Con-ed decided to dig it up 2 weeks ago and have left the project unfinished since. They stuck a traffic cone in it, but doesn't help that random folks keep stealing them or moving it.

CachacoF80 · 08-01-2019, 10:06 AM

I'm considering buying the OEM one. If car is stock height then we guys also think it's "disposable" and high risk? I'm in The east bay if SF and while highways are not great, threat of potholes is generally low. My driveway is steep but have managed fine with angling.

Did your bumper go with it? Genuinely curious because when I try to move mine at all by tugging at it it's almost impossible.
