        I hate the IS lip, I had one and I traded it. I'm thinking about fitting (correctly) a VW MKIII lip someday but my ultimate goal is to fit a set of early euro bumpers.

          How do you plan on doing that?

            Front euro bumper, front euro valance and lip.

            Vert rear euro bumper or standard rear euro bumper with vert end parts, filling the gap between the bumper and the rear valance wih metal/welding.

            It's easy but I need the time and money to do it.

              Plastic Bumpers are the best IMO. But euro bumpers are sexy as well. These cars look great. Hoping to find another set of 16s soon!

                Would look great with chrome euro bumpers. Too bad they're so damn expensive

                  I hate the is lip as well. Granted more cause they catch on everything.

                    Got mine on today - Rota Grid V 16x8 et20 with Falken 205/45/16. H&R 10mm spacers out front. About to order a set for the back to bring them out. This full polished option just hit on these, not even posted on their website as an option yet - had to get them!
                    It's about to get fitted with euro bumpers and valance, so it's in an ugly duckling stage right now, then comes paint. Seeing it with 16s makes me feel the need to go lowerrrrrr - gotta lose those center caps too.

                      Anyone running their 16's over a UUC bbk? Damn I'm having trouble with 16 fitment and those things. Granted, I'm in an iX with higher offset. Any advice at all would be welcome.

                          I have 16x8 et20 XXR 530s over my UUC kit, clears with an inch or more every direction. Not what I plan on keeping on there forever, but they work for now.

                                So what the scoop on tires? My 225/45/16 are getting a little low on tread for the PNW.
