Anyhow, Veilside lip? Aggressive and yet subtle.

LOL. The chrome 20" wheels are for shows. I have others along with some racing wheels with slicks. These are on the car most of the time, since I show it more frequently than I race it right now.

Thanks for the feedback. Keep it coming! I'm eating up the comments and starting to lean toward a decision. I'm headed to Intense right this second to discuss with them!

Here's a thread to see one painted on the vehicle.

The Vertex V1 lip doesn't fit the 06 bumper.

So I just looked at the Full Kit by Vertex for the roadster. I am liking it. Here are the pics:

I really appreciate the feedback. I know it's going to be what looks best to me ultimately, but I like all of these kits and at the same time I'm worried that when I get it, I won't like it. That's why I'm getting feedback from those that have seen them in person and those that have kits, and those that have more experience with them than I do.

I love everything about the Ings +1 LX, except for the rubber lining between the stock bumper and the lip. If you look at the pictures, to me it makes the lip look like it wasn't a good fit/finish or just makes it look obvious that it was added on. My wife noticed it too. Maybe it's not so obvious in real life, the pictures may make it more noticeable.

More than understandable, coming from a fellow Arizonian.

I've heard good things of Intense but haven't had to go there yet because I done everything myself...anything I don't need an actual lift for at least. I'm sure there will be a day...
