I think I will wait for CF lip. It will look awesome on my WW Evo8.

Please keep us posted on CF lips.

Isn't that what the stock front and rear bumper covers are made of? Paint sticks fine to those. I want a lip made out of whatever the stock bumper covers are made of. The bottom will get all scratched up, but the part you see will always be in good condition, and it won't crack or break.

IIRC, stock front bumper/lower lip are made out of ABS plastic .. not polyurethane

That sounds like a real good price for the CF lip. Is this a done deal for the CF lip, I will order one when they are in stock. the pics look real nice, can't wait

if your car has stock suspension, you shouldn't have any clearance issues. My car is lowered about 1.5 front and still plenty of clearance.. when go upon a driveway, I usually go up at an angle to avoid scraping

Thanks
