    So I put on my freshly painted IS lip...

    I cant stand that bitch! I took it off after a few hours. I'd rather not be scraping the ground every time I drive into a parking lot.

    Who cares if you scrape? You aren't hurting anything. Looks a million times better.

      Amen. And if you knock it off and run over it, it really doesn't hurt it much. Ask me how I know . . .

          Going into a friend's driveway once, I ripped the splitter off the lip AND the lip off the car at the same time. Neither of them were damaged. The paint has flex-marks in it but nobody can tell unless you get down and stare. These things are indestructable.

            It's pretty apparent that the original poster cares about how his car looks.

                  I love the way is lips look but I hate is lips. I was about to get an i lip before the sale. I warned the buyer to get an i lip, my work is done.

                    To be fair I did feel a difference with and without the lip and highway speeds as well as high speeds on the track. The car definately feels more stable.

                    Sell me your iS lip. I'll drag it around all day.

                        Who cares if its scrapes. Unless the cars on a lift you cant see the scrape marks at all. I love the look of my black is lip. I knocked it off at least 5 times in about 2000 miles on a cup kit, but with my OE sports its no longer a problem. Even after being knocked around and run over numerous times, it still looks brand new. I havent even busted a clip yet.
