Thumbs up Evo-R Version I Lip

Evo-R's Version I FRP Front Lip (StyleKing Rep) is the BEST and it's also a functional lip (read below);

Quoting from "Chebosto";
"1. to get downforce on the lip at the corners, due to the extension past the nose of the car when looked at the side profile...
2. to get air thru the center, where the front lip curves up and out to create a slightly lower air pressure zone under the front nose of the car (diffuser)
3. based on the angle of curvature you can see the venturi channels sweep out, and yes, some air will goto your front brakes!"

Best of all, it's ON-SALE too, click on the link below for more pictures and info.

The best is whatever you think is the best. I woundn't get a V1 lip cause so many people have them. Its your taste of a lip on your Z. So get what you want and not what other people like.

since you're not one to follow the pack maybe you should come up with a username that's not a rip off of someone elses... i.e blue batmobile.

I really like the Veilside lip as well but agree that too many people have it. What other lips are out there that are pretty sutble besides the Nismo?

I second that. Data Systems is cool too. Junction Produce is pretty hot, and should flow well on its own without need side skirts.

I think my favorite is the Illusion front lip, but unfortunately, that thing costs $400!

Although it may be functional, I think the evo-r lip is pretty ricey. I vote for Veilside ver 1 as well.

V1 lip best bang for the buck.The reason why many people have this kit is it looks good and the price is reasonble.
