Cone friendly front lip?
I did a little search and didnt see a lot mentioned about durability. Basicly I plan to do some auto-x and want a lip that can handle my poor driving abilities.

the lip is only as strong as the clips that hold it to the front bumper

I'd say that APR's splitter would hold up best. Don't know what you consider a lip though

My Varis one has hit it's fair share of cones at motorkhanas. Not a scratch.
Stress not.

Just don't hit anything hard.

whatever lip you get, just wrap it up in blue tape before the race to protect it

Get a sheetmetal splitter and sharpen it the night before. Go cone killing for real.
