Need a favor

Hey guys - I am thinking of putting on the aero lip, but am concerned I will rub on my garage entrance; it's a 13 degree slope, and right now I do not rub on H&R sports, but I know it's close. I *think* the aero lip may only be a few cm lower, which would rock; but if it's like 2 inches it'll be a no go. If someone who has it could check for me I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Can we get an update on this?

I have the aero kit. The lip extends only slightly below the bumper, that is why it it fits with the stock side skirts so well.

i am about 5 1/2 inches off the ground right now with the front aero lip on the lowest part of the lip, lowered on h&r sports on 19 inch wheels, when i had my stock 17 inch wheels, i was 5 inches exact off the ground...hopes this helps

You went up 1/2" by lowering your car and installing the lip??

ehhhwik · 04-19-2007, 12:16 AM

With sport package, stock tires and suspension, WITHOUT the Aerolip, the front bumper has about 7.00" of clearance.

WITH the Aerolip, the bumper has 6.875" clearance. 1/8th of an inch is the difference. It doesn't actually hang any lower, it's just the additional width of the lip material.

Measured before and after a couple of nights ago.
