    combining "i" and "is" lips?

    how would someone go about doing this? I am considering doing this to have a bigger OEM quality lip type thing. How much better would a rieger infinity lip be? Infinity would also be more expensive.

    Do you mean lip, not spoiler?

      I don't like it. too many lines, the edges don't line up. if you want a deeper spoiler, get a rieger lip, there's one in FS/WTB right now for just over $200.

          Matt with the crazy turbo 325is had that for a while but he molded them together. It looked awesome though. Be prepared to break it off though. It will sit fuckin low. I say do it, I sure as hell would.

            i tried it for a while on the old car. it looks OK, but would look better moulded together.

              also, would it sit lower than a rieger lip?

                Probably about even, but it wouldn't be swept forward like the Rieger lip is.

                      Lies . Lies , I tell you .

                      I can't believe that having a "i" lip underneath or below an "is" would look like anything other than total dogshit .

                        Does anyone sell an ABS plastic one? The ones I see on Ebay are all fiberglass... yech.

                            I bought mine from eurostyle in canada for $130 shipped. Its very strong and flexible. I have bumped it a few times with no damage. Quality fiberglass will not disintigrate on impact like everyone seems to think.

                              Thanks, I guess that was the real thrust of my question, whether or not the factory one was plastic. Thanks a bunch, think I'll order one next week!
