        reiger, the real deal is ABS, they don't break.

          Yes its a real reiger. Its actually broken a few times and in need of another repair, but it has held up well. I have a faux lip at the house as well. I agree about the wheels, and am passively looking around. When I get the b25 in, I may sell them for something different.

            my faux reiger lip has taken a pretty good punishment. I don't think either would survive being run over like dan's was...

              no doubt. I nailed a patch of snow and broke a chunk off and ran it over. It cracked bad in two spots. I still bow down to the hit it took from a rabbit at 35 mph though. It broke some plastic on the mounting lip, but I reinforce it with sheet metal tabs.

                I agree completly. That car needs nicer wheels, I would go up a size or 2. With the body mods a 17 inch wheel would look great.

                        You guys and your obsession with huge wheels.

                        15s are fine.

                          my gen. reiger died to a bunny @55mph.. poor thing didnt stand a chance (lip that is) Picked up the pieces but turned out there was more than the 8 pieces i found :(

                          Car looks sweet.. think i prefered the black rims in some ways
