Default Anyone Here Have Top Secret CF Lip?

Hi guys

Has anyone here fitted the Top Secret front lip/diffuser

Ive been looking for a subtle CF lip and really like the Top Secret. I originally wanted the Vielside, but i think the Top Secret will match a few more skirt/rear combos later on. For the meantime im just thinking of the OEM mudflaps on the front only to complete the lipped guard egde look

Ive been browsing online but cant find any pics other than a couple little pics from Top Secret on a white Z

Does anyone have any pics on there car or others'?

Thanks

thanks for the pics guys, nice Z's

i see u both have the front splash guards too, they look really good and suit the lip perfectly!!!

how does it secure to the bumper? does it bolt on or do u need to glue it as well?

do u guys think itd suit a stock Anniversary? or should i wait till i fit rims?

would love a pic on an SB

its a really nice piece, but its not fully CF. jsut the top portion is CF, the underside/diffuser part is fiberglass.

imho. get the fiberglass and paint it! its not worth the extra $$$

i do like the CF look though, and with gun metal Ro_Ja's the CF will match really well

i dont know about u guys, but i find certain wheels and kits dont work well together. So im trying to work out what kit ill want then match a wheel to it

I completely do not agree with your comment. The CF portion is strong enough to withstand some pretty serious rock hits. The fiberglass knockoff version looks like complete **** after a few months of driving.

Really thick clear coat is the key against rock chips.

Carbon fiber or Fiberglass.

Thanks.
I love it. The titanium looks simply amazing.
It produces a very exotic sound. Its surprising quiet at normal driving(almost stock if not quieter), but once you get on it, it screams like there’s no tomorrow...

Oh, and it’s extremely light.
