Quick Pics of Luma Lip and .. Plate Delete mod

sard · 03-18-2010, 07:11 PM

Hey gents, I received the Luma Lip today and with the help of Ed, installed it. Seeing the lip on user 'dds02400' helped me decide which lip I liked the most. I must say the fitment isn't 100%. Nor would I call it very good even. It's "ok" with some muscle-ing required. Overall I'm happy with it though. HD Auto Salon shipped it out to me in 2 days flat from the day I ordered it. Packing was very protected.

I also had Bumper Solutions remove my front plate holes and repaint it. The work isn't perfect either, but you cant expect it to be for what it is, a "spot". I would say it's pretty good. I am happy with the end results of his work though.

I'll have to get around to taking nicer photos, but here are some after a car wash.

sard · 03-18-2010, 08:19 PM

The fitment is mostly in regards of the mating surface and the ends are not 100% flush.

They're fine for track/daily driving. You can adjust them to pretty soft. I don't think they're too harsh at all and I can still make them softer. The roads around here are pretty good though...

spoonf20c · 03-18-2010, 08:41 PM

thats pretty damn clean... is it cf painted matte black? or poly left unfinished?

This is a quote from HD Auto Salon when I asked what it's made out of

"The lip[,] it's made of fiberglass with layers of raw cf renforcement to ensure the duriability but it's not made of steel"

It appears to be painted matte black. Not 100% sure.

spoonf20c · 03-18-2010, 09:04 PM

thanks! wish they made a polyurethane version.

Johnny Lin · 03-18-2010, 09:08 PM

What part of Socal are you from? I'm usually in the downtown/west la area and the roads are a nightmare... im used to driving low though so its ok

I love the design of that lip! which vendor did you get it from and what's the ballpark price if you don't mind me asking?
