Is $800 and $700 a reasonable price for wald front and rear lip, respectively?

picture of f-sport rims + wald.

I'm on coilovers but even at this height I scrape on the dips WITH even trying the slow sideways technique

And the rear can't be lowered anymore due to the f-sport under chassis brace.

I scraped so hard on the freeway one time sparks flew out....

Also on spacers front and rear

you can go lower in the rear. I have the chassis brace aswell. Drove all the way to LA from the Bay for pursuit, with a passenger and rear seats full with out bags...i also have a100+lbs system in the trunk aswell. Never scrapped the chassis brace once, and we were doin 80-130 all the way down.

Even mariano barely scrapes his rear brace haha and hes hellla low

Hehe I want to! But I have a black car so it's probably not going to make a huge diff .. I'll probably put that money into f exhaust ..
Now just debating whether to get 19" or not .. I'll decide when I see the clearance after drop on H&R

I also have a full Wald dropped on coils and I do not scrape if driven carefully. There will be those occasional driveways that you can not avoid scraping on but as long as you take it slow and careful, it'll be fine and the scrape will be at the bottom of the lip where no one will see.

Added a couple pics of your car David. SFFD103
Thats a awesome car you have there. Was it a lot of work and is it costly to install the quad exhaust?

^ the 06-08 2is front bumper is different from the 09-10 2is front bumper, and both are different from the 2011 2is bumper.

a side-by-side comparison will confirm this.

09-10 has more curves, looks more aggressive. There's a side-by-side pic somewhere
