I love that lip, unfortunately, it looks like I will get alot of scraping with it. My car is dropped. What sides and rear do you have?

SteaminRice, did you have the lip filled or is it part of the OEM bumper?

Trust me you wouldn't... I have the same lip, and if you cut those out you it you would be able to see through the bumper and would look nasty! Best thing you can do is get black sticker go to a shop that does graphics and put a black sticker there... That would look hot

I have that lip too, and it's awesome. As for scraping, it all depends on how you exit driveways. Going up driveways is fine as long as you don't take them head on and there are some driveways that you may even clear head on. However exiting driveways must be done at angles to avoid scraping. The first few weeks I had the lip I scraped at a few driveways, now I never scrape. lol but you will get looked at strangely exiting driveways at angles.

The reason I asked was because Ryder had installed it on his car but you could see the bottom of his OEM Bumper.

Maybe if they had a fog light that fit in that area, but I like the bumper with it filled.

Alrighty... I'm not lowered, and YES-- the car is LOW now in the front! Damn near as low as my old accord that was dropped 2.25 inches! I'd say 1.5 inches lower in teh front. I don't have any sideskirts, and won't even think about doing them until i get some rims. I'm in college tho, and just started another semester, so I'm brizoke. About filling in the oem bumper... I think mine looks exactly the same. There is a piece that goes over the middle of the OEM bumper that fits perfectly and makes it look very integrated.

To the question about scraping-- I can get out of my driveway fine, and it's pretty rough. I know i'll have to go somewhat sideways over most stuff now tho, but that's no problem. About the little holey things-- It doesn't bother me, and I don't think I'd cut them or fill them with black, but who knows. If I could find some nice fogs, they would look pretty cool there imo, but now it's time to keep the car goin faster. Maybe finish the kit & rims around next xmas, but not until i got my plenum and cats.

Who did your paint work and install? The match looks great.

My dad's cousin (i guess my 2nd or whatever) is a really good painter (did the paint job of Adam Saruwatari's NSX) and only charged me 40 for the lip and 50 for my nismo rep spoiler My brother and I do install on everything we do to any of the cars (he's a tech). Thanks for the love everybody... As for the fog lights-- that was my initial thought, but it's be ... interesting to find something that would fit the mold of the kit and still look good. I'll look into it a little next weekend when I have time again, but school and work start again in about 9 hrs, so time to focus
