Default Front lip.

What do you guys think of this lip.
Its from ebay so would I have fitment issues?

My Z is silver stone and I like the how the color matches. Should I just leave it black as is, or should I paint it black, What if I spray paint it black would it hold up?


One last thing, What is the installation process for front lips? Who has done it and can help me with some tips.


Thanks.

That's pretty ugly brocifer look at Nismo or VeilSide or Evo-R instead.

You would just screw the lip on the corners and use double-sided tape if needed.

I didn't think it looked THAT bad. To install, I lined up the center area under the opening and then gently popped in the sides. There were areas under my lip that was there to have screws, bolts, or rivets to attach to the bumper cover. Use those areas on the bottom and the area in the wheel well. Some double sided tape would work under the opening area, but might be a pain to get in there. I don't have this particular lip, but install would probably be similar.

No, please just no. If I still had my Greddy lip I would give it to you just to save your Z the humiliation. Nothing wrong with 2 tone, but I am a little partial.

Looks like the Z has a jagged jaw with that thing on. Way too obtrusive.

contemplated that lip b4 untill i saw it in person and not impressed at all. it sticks out way too much and gives it this fake aggressive look to it not matching to the flat lines on the Z.

but to all their own and if you do get it be sure to get some pics
