Voltex Lip and Work Wheels arrangement.

Hey guys just trying to get a feel of what your opinion is on the mixture of the Voltex lip and my new wheel setup. I finished the engine build in the winter and just getting ready for spring. Ignore the front plate, Illinois has a stupid front plate rule and keep getting tickets so slapped the plate on. Hope you guys aren't too mean about my POS. lol

Added more picture further in the thread fyi.

I'm thinking yet for the splitter, (i don't want to mess the front lip up lol) I'm currently lowered on swift springs, i like that drop, it's my daily so coil overs may be too much for me.

lpy2009: the wheel size is 18x9.5+15, it's very aggressive (more then i thought it would be). I think next i am going to carbon fiber the inserts on the car, and then maybe the fog lights instead of a delete im not sure yet.

I was worried the lip just stuck out too much but right now i'm pretty happy with it

It looks kind of weird being that high with that lip.

i like it

but you are wasting a great intercooler by blocking it with the plate. why not put the oem plate bracket on?

hey aren't the spec r's just the normal swifts. They have a good drop with the size wheel.

I do think i need side skirts, but the only one's i'm thinking about are the fq 400 side skirts unless you guys have ideas on other side skirts?

agreed, the 2010+ stock sides are "big" enough to warrant that lip. now if you had the 08 skirts you definitely need the aero sides. i would just get the rear add on's.
