Default What do the VIP guys think about this

Well I was doing my weekly ebay rade. I did find some good stuff on there this week if I can post links I will of my weekly finding. One of the items I did find was called a front spoiler take a look.






I thought it was a bit odd. Is this something new they started to do or rice? I know the guy selling this isnt very popular around here but I thought Id share.

I like it Probably hard to justify the cost though when you consider the part and then the paint job. Unless maybe you were already getting something else painted...

I agree with carlsson it looks great on JP's car but on a car that isnt so moded out I think it might stand out a bit to much.

Hmmm i think it would look bad on any other car than black. On any other color, the line between the hood and the spoiler would be too obvious, on black it won't. Then again, if it's so subtle on black, why'd one get it in the first place....hmmmm.

The one on the black car looks good since it fits well, but the one on the silver car doesn't look that good. It looks like the urethane M3 spoiler that was just slapped on. I think if done right it will look good.

i was thinking about this piece a while ago but didn't think it would flow right even on my blue which isn't light. i thought this would only look decent on a blk car since it hides it.

I thought mayb blue would hide it aswell but thought if i'm buying a bonnet to try to hide than why buy it in the 1st place

imho that piece is pretty "useless" in terms of look or so. guess if you finish off the body kits and spoiler/ roof spoiler then you can go with this

I like subtleness and this is subtle! Besides I think it only looks good on a black car..

100% they will not be mounting things to the fenders... This like carlssonls400 said is the last thing necessary when someone is pretty much modded out.
