comment, make fun of me

okay, i'm game

Definitely lip, think how much awesomer it'll look when you come flying out of the next ditch with that hanging off the front end

or
Do the lip, the sharp angle will cut right through the small, pesky new growth when you can't manage to stay out of the back trails

Seriously though, it looks good. But you gotta make up your mind first if you're going to keep this thing on the road or if you're going to keep throwing it around in the woods.....this lip definitely isn't made for that

Absolutely not. Not ever.

do you have a pic from the side? I'd like to see how far it sticks out.

first thoughts - I don't think it looks bad.

sure can, i got evreything mounted so i'll throw some more pics up..

skyphix · « **Reply #8 on:** July 12, 2011, 10:01:34 PM »

Reason? It looks terrible. Does not fit the style of your car in any way, shape, or form. IMO, it barely works on Wagonzilla and I've never seen a big lip like that that looked good. Stick with the garage door lip or go with something less... giant... like an early wrx bumper or something.

Sorry to be blunt, but you asked for honesty.

Trev · « **Reply #9 on:** July 12, 2011, 10:09:09 PM »

honesty is good, doesn't bother me, right now i like it, next week i won't... haha. i have a 3 piece sti lip in the garage i still gotta try..

spoolordie · « **Reply #10 on:** July 12, 2011, 10:25:03 PM »

run it

it looks good

if you're gonna paint it to match i say go for it

acwrx · « **Reply #12 on:** July 13, 2011, 12:21:55 AM »

DONT DO IT!. youve got a nice looking ride...it just wouldnt look right together with what youve got...

cazwrx187 · « **Reply #13 on:** July 13, 2011, 12:56:54 AM »

Don't do it. People would consider it "rice" on your car.

By some miracle I have not broken that front lip, but the entire bottom has almost no paint left on it. I'd say just run the bumper (can't see the pic).

FastfreddyRs · « **Reply #15 on:** July 13, 2011, 09:44:12 AM »

i would try the sti 3 piece lip, it's a lot cleaner look then the chargespeed one, I had a WRC front lip for that bumper but it sold a while back. which looked just like the sti 3 piece. Whatever you do make sure you paint it to match the car.

Trev · « **Reply #16 on:** July 13, 2011, 02:03:11 PM »

I say paint the car to match the bumper....

Kavik · « **Reply #18 on:** July 13, 2011, 02:30:27 PM »

hmmmm, i'm changing my vote. Now that I see it attached it looks funny how far off it is from lining up with the side skirts

Trev · « **Reply #19 on:** July 13, 2011, 02:44:11 PM »

don't mind evreything like lights and hood being way un even... haha. Idk yet, i work close tonight so i'll prolly change the lip tomaro, try the sti one..

lol thought you were gonna say that. It would be really helpful to have a spare bumper that was already the right color. The Chargespeed lip grinds the paint off the upper edge of bottom section of the bumper.
