Default 350Z owners with CF lip, need you input.

so like many of you got my tax refund and it's burning a hole in my pocket!

I want to get a carbon fiber front lip for my 04 350Z.

Been looking at the Veilside V1 CF front lip but my local retailer in WA state told me that lip is on major back order and won't even be able to get one for 3 months + another month shipping. I don't want to wait that long.

I know genuine veilside CF lip has perfect fit, but what other CF lips out there have a great fit?

I've had horrible experiences in the past with lip kits that have fitment issues.

Can anyone suggest a CF lip that they have that is reputable and it fits well?

I don't want to have the body shop install it, plan to do it on my own.

Any and all suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

I've always heard that the Mine's lip fits great.

Just installed my Seibon VS lip. Fitment was good and I was overall very pleased with the purchase.

I've been waiting on my Veilside c/f lip for almost two months. It just makes it that much better when it finally comes in.

I've got the Veilside V1 lip in CF and it fits and looks great. Pay for the V1 now and when it comes in you'll be happy.

+1000 on the Veilside CF lip. I got it and love it. Not so much the rock chips that inevitably end up on the lip though. They look like poop.

Yeah, carbon front lips and rocks don't play nice together. :/

But hey man, sometimes you gotta pay the price if you want a hot looking car. (This coming from somebody who used to buy 2 full sets of Front Bumper, Side Skirts, and Rear Bumpers and paint them all at once. I KNOW it can be rough on the streets and track. lol)

i love my vs v1 lip in cf... yes... the rock chips do suck... but nothing a little resin and hardner won't fix.

i fixed two chicps already, good thing is they are very low almost on the bottom of the lip. nobody every notices.

the vs lip looks the best to me.
