    I'll go along with the guy that said he'd put it on an old car but not on the WRX.

    Looks really good for $8 but I like painted lips that complement the rest of the car.

    so, do you think it bends at highway speeds? the stuff is really flimsy. you'll have to be sure to put the screws pretty far forward and that there is NO gap between the fender and the material. or it's going to rip off the first time you get behind an 18-wheeler. might also want to use a super strong glue all the way across.
    my 2ยข. i really like the other lip you show us. it was a shape and sticks out more like a real lip.

    for serious driving this is a great way to increase your drag i would think. but if it's just for show anyways, then might as well.

    The V-Limted lip does the same thing.

    I had a V-Limted and it lasted a month. I had a RavSpec CF lip and the railroad tracks at buford hwy and Pleasent Hill ripped it off last Friday. I filed a claim with Norfolk Southern for reimbursement.

    This lip is a great solution as I refuse to spend over $1000 for front lips.

    It looks very simular to the V-Limited so don't go knocking it.

    I'm gonna try it this weekend. Get some double sided tape and reuse my hardware from the CF lip. It'll fit nice and snug.

    I'll snap a few pics to compare with my old V-Limited pics.

    $480 V-Limited
