Looks great! I'm so used to seeing your ride with the Artisan front. The C West is definitely aggressive and looks to be a nice fit.

I think you're onto something Kody. I'm still getting use to the carbon on USB look when previously, it was all USB clean. I have a feeling carbon fiber fogs will be the least of my CF addiction starting now...

I agree, in the end, it was the semi-agressive look, and the price sealed it.

U should get the sides of the lip molded and painted to match usb...the lines from the side as it goes up on the bumper looks off to me...view from the front looks really good..i like it more than the toms

+1 thev sides are kinda massive. I think it would flow nicely color match. Other then that it looks great

Disagree - dont mold or color match it! Leave it!

^^^ Correct, no way I will add more $ to mold or color match just for a lip. It just doesn't make sense in the long run (e.g., resale).

The sides are high to compliment the rest of the kit, specifically the carbon fiber side skirts. Sure, it looks unfinished, but it more than suits my need for now. Down thevroad, CF sides with either Tom's diffuser or C-west.....stay tuned.

Very nice touch for the front end and that blue is just so sweet looking.

I really like the lip. I am still in the market for one. Thanks for posting. By the way, what is the color of the face of HRE wheels?
