    What's this on my car?

    So I'm brand new to E30s and trying to catch up on all of your terminology. I'm assuming the front bumper is stock? Anyone familiar with this lip on the car?

      What's the deal with the late model IS lip? Been trying to find a picture but I'm not really sure what I'm looking for.

          Haha, yeah that looks significantly better than the off center lip slapped onto mine. Appreciate it man.

          In that picture above the lack of cutouts above the headlamps is the difference in the euro grill right?
