Custom Front Lip Installed.....

came down to sofla for a couple days and had a custom front lip made, it's the same one that's on the white camo 335i. I'm still on the fence about it, I think it looks a lot better on his car with the v-style lip as well.

what if it was gloss black? If you squint your eyes, it looks like a shadow under the bumper

Not really feeling it. Should've done something like the Kerscher lip but with more aggressive fangs.

its too thin. the shape is good but it looks like cardboard painted black. make it a 1/4-3/8" thick and round the edge and you'll be in business. its a great start!

A lot of good choices. Personally I would really love to own a E39 M5. It's just beautiful! But whatever you get, just don't get the B5 S4. Not because I don't like Audi's but the B5 is meh to me. B6 is better.

Looks paper thin, i would think the forces while driving are going to cause this to flex like crazy. Like others said its a good start but if u want "custom" go with APR cause this is just useless.

If your going to have a front splitter u may as use have it be useful. Look into Alumalite and use the template that u already have and go from there.
