removing 09 x-package lip
I'll be picking up an 09 IS350 this week and am considering removing the lip that comes with the x-package. (not due to looks but driveway issues)
Does anyone have instructions or pics of the install? Any issues that I could run into (holes, tape, etc) if I remove it?
Thanks

The lip doesnt really lower the front of ur car, It sicks outwards more than it does point downards plus its just on the sides of ur front, its pretty much makes the sides flusher with the front part(well a little bit lower). I doubt it will affect drivablility, unless u plan on slammin ur ride ofcourse
check the pic to see what i mean
As you will soon realise those lips are hot commodities right now. Its so sweet lookin, everyones gonna want it.

Here is another pic
notice the lip is two pieces, (both pieces end right before the license plate)
also it just makes ur front more flat.
Its one of the nicest lips spoiler (espt if u dont want something low)

Yo, I'll take it off your hands for ya if you don't want it. I'm not sure how much the dealer is charging for the lip, but if ya put it on 3bay I'll bid on them! LOL Fo Sho!

Most people yearn to have that lip and you want to take it off? The irony! =D
I'd say just learn how to drive a bit slower and go on angles. Once you get used to that, you won't even feel like you are going out of your way. The X-package is unique and rare, enjoy it to its fullest!

The lips are bolt on the bumper. There are 2 big holes on the side of the bumper. Its not pretty if you take out the lips.
BTW... check out the hawaii section also.
