      IT looks weird becuase it dosn't flair out around the bottom edge. The bmw is lip goes narrow near the top then flairs back out to wide near the bottom. Where as his is just straight. But never the less it looks nice, How much will you sell one for?

        A couple days ago i finally decided to wash my car as it had tons of mud caked on it and my hands were almost purple from the cold hose water and it being cold out to begin with. :D

        Anyway its not bad looking, soon as you find the perfect time to paint it do so and post up some pics.

                      remounted over the "I" lip. i may have to hit it up with some undercoat paint as regular paint just gets chipped off real easy. car is really dirty

                      lighting sucked, maybe this weekend ill take some pix outside after I repaint it.

                        That's looks a LOT better without the I lip and painted black.

                        Pretty sweet. :twisted:

                          Looks a million times better painted and without the "i" lip.

                          I think your front end would look a whole lot better if you got rid of the euro plate and put the US one back in the right spot. Its just way too busy right now.

                            You ever look into having some more made? I'm wanting one as My I lip flew off the other night and has 5 cracks and a major chunk missing.

                              the person that I had make it just retired from the metal shop. so i dont think its possible. I may be able to get the materials, but the machines/tools is what i dont have. next project is a splitter. 8)

                                Looks better like that, less lines. Try flat black and see how you like it. Just get some good quality paint on there with primer.
