CF Front Lip

Hi everyone,

I am deciding to install a front lip for my RA and I am looking at two brands at the moment. One from RRM and the other from Streetconcept.

However, the more I look at the pictures the more I feel that they look the same. Could anyone who has installed this lip be it from RRM or Streetconcept comment? I am more concern about the fitting (bolt on and off?) and the material used for the lip spoiler.....

Thanks.

I hear all kinds of great stuff about RRM's and it is a direct bolt on with no fitment issues. My questions is how much lower does RRM's sit than the stock front lip?

theres a thread a few pages back about the front lip RRM/Carbontrix offers. I remember reading it is a bit lower(approx 1/2inch - GUESTIMATE). However, the guy who put it on also said it pretty much lines up with the side skirts and doesnt pose any offset lower front looks.

I wish they made one for the 2006 model... I cried when they told me it wouldnt fit!

Nice! I'm also interested in a front lip, but leaning towards RRM.

Did you need to drill any extra holes on the front bumper? Or does it only use the factory mounting holes and 2-sided tape?

^Rock was saying that it's a direct bolt on and there is no need for tape.

I'll be painting it...... Just that I really hope that the extended chin is gonna give me better downforce for the front coupled with a pair of carnards from Voltex....
