The seller is top notch, splitters are awesome,
Wow, those do look awesome! How do these install? Do you have to drill new holes?

Thanks everyone for the advice. DS2k send me information for a replica Lexon lip that I just ordered. A friend of mine also got the lip and it looks awesome on his F. Originally was going to wrap it in gloss black vinyl but not I'm thinking of getting is painted to make my USB F. Thoughts?

Paint it. I think it'll flow better. Glad to know that you scored one

my inbox blew up after your post, lol.

to the OP, I put together a list of diffusers awhile ago, and pretty much all the diffusers have a complimentary front lip. So if you search the brands that are posted in this link it may help you find a front lip that you like... hope this helps.

Finally bought and installed a lip on my F. Thanks to Andrew from Collision Specialist for the paint job and the install. Extra clean work on the lip; he buffed out rough patches (came like that), painted and fixed some rock chips that I had.

It's a nice clean look. Looks much better with the color match to the body. What's next?

looks great! I got mine painted and installed a few weeks ago as well



it's a crappy cell phone picture, but you get the idea.

Not too sure right now. I'm trying to figure out how to make the scratches on the bottom of the bumper smooth.. the parts that the lip didn't cover. But yeah, any suggestion on something else to add to the F?
