Actually, Hippo Sleek makes a complete front bumper (which I have) and an add on lip for the stock Altezza front bumper. That is just a stock front bumper with the Hippo Sleek lip...

Does anyone have a picture of the Hippo Sleek front lip on a stock bumper?

Thumbs up Phillzpeed

I viewed your car in the photo gallery, very nice

Are you sporting Hippo Sleek all around? How much did you drop your car? I noticed that you were able to install a grill; doesn’t the Hippo Sleek front bumper come with some center divider around the grill area?

Thanks bro!

Actually, the sideskirts and rear are ArmsDesign... Only the spoiler and front bumper are Hippo Sleek. I think the Arms sides go better with the Hippo front than the Hippo sides do! LOL

The Hippo Sleek bumper does not include the divided grille thing. That is the Hippo Sleek Grille. Any grille will fit with the bumper.

I am riding on Tein High-tech springs, which are no longer available. It is about a 1.5" drop.
