Default Any1 have pictures of the Blitz front lip?

Anyone have pictures of the Blitz lip from different angles and further away? I'm not talking about the pictures of the white IS and the Blitz FI kit because those pics are too close. Someone did post one picture of it in this thread:

Anymore pictures? I'm just wondering if the front is lower than the back/sides since the kit is only a front lip...

Errr... It was just the grill for sale, but I think that's the blitz kit as well...

I hate the blitz front kit.. IMO, it makes the 2IS looks like a honda civic

Here's another shot I took of nabisco's car, it looks a little lower than the side skirts and rear but you get the same effect with the X-package front lip too. In pictures I didn't think the Blitz lip looked as good as other kits out there, but in person I have to say it looked pretty good.



I didn't realize until I saw it in person that it has CF in the middle section, it actually looks very nice:

Thanks for the pics! Do you have a pic of the front but farther away?

I was just wondering.... does the lip scrape easily because it extends out so much?

no problem... the only other pic I have is this one:



You'll have to ask nabisco if he has any trouble, but my guess is yeah it'll be more at risk to scraping... extending so far out means you have to deal with a lower approach angle if I'm using the right off-road expression.

Wow that's great! Thanks so much for the pics. I'm seriously considering about getting it now... Is his car lowered by any chance? I'll PM him as well but he seems to be a little busy at the moment. I wonder if the stock grill will match the Blitz front lip kit?

yeah it's lowered he has Tein coilovers I think?
I thought the Blitz grill matches very nicely with the CF accent on the lip but stock grill probably looks fine... you can always paste the grill onto the photo above with photoshop and see how it looks.

Looks like a grain of rice IMHO.
