I've been thinking about getting a new front lip for my car. Do you guys think I should just get a an "is" lip. Or should I look into an aftermarket product such as the one on BavAuto. Any input/opinions are appreciated. Thx guys.

Infinity lips are too low to last very long on a lowered e30. Not only that, but they are made of very fragile plastic.Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

I've got Rieger's Infinity I lip and splitter on my car, been testing out hard driving as well as daily driving, even including a journey from Chicago to Florida and I haven't scraped once. Car is on IE race springs with slightly oversized tires. I don't really have to be an old lady going up driveways, inclines, down, etc... I just take them at slight angles. My car is ever so planted at highway speeds with the new body additions.
Anyway, Jordan, I'll get pics for you sometime. I'm still working at getting the sideskirts lined up with M-tech II door panels and still waiting on different center hats from IE to give me a few more millimeters clearance for my front brake rotors and the tie rod end.

I was with Chris, until mine tore off... 8 days after installation, one day after the GCs.. first 7 were on RD springs. If you're careful and have a splitter on it, you should be alright, though I would not recommend one. My 'is' lip takes a fucking beating, about 15x what the rieger would take.

He told me he could get the Reiger Lip for $150 plus shipping. Albeit shipping might be more, but IS Lip + Splitter + Shipping would be much more.
Just saying.......
P.s. I prefer IS Lip + Splitter from M3 Ryan personally.
