every time someone on this forums does a new mod to their car I get inspired and often buy the part(s), never to put it due to lack of time. I have a whole cabinet of items ready to go on the car. However, due to a freak snow event last weekend my wife relieved me of all the outdoor projects around the house so I could spend a few hours in the garage. :biggrin:
Finally the TBW shield and the EZ Lip went up (thanks Ilya for inspiration).

Her are a few pics. I give the look an (A-) for how it turned out. I'd give myself a (B) for installation. I have ordered the larger pro lip. I was worried it would be too much but it actually looks ok. Overall I like it. Regardless, next time my wife drives it the lip may disappear anyway (even though she's forbidden to park the frond end first). :tisk:

Not bad, not bad. And you're welcome haha.

Also, I think one benefit of this lip is it will bend slightly when up against a curb...and it sticks onto the bumper like crazy as you now know. So it may be okay taking a few beatings lol.

Looks pretty good man, give yourself more credit!

Your grille makes me want to black out mine though I'd leave the emblem chrome.

thanks for kind words.
I have a million ideas for the grill/front look just not enough time. I may leave the painting to the pros next time though. My body color matched grill surround and emblem already show enough nicks/peeling that they make me want to have it redone. The emblem will be getting some pop of color next time around. Just need to figure out what else will get some color to match to have it make sense. I'm thinking my lower grill chrome inserts...

As for the lip. Yes it does stick well, except at the ends. The aero bumper curves underneath towards the sides and I had to glue the lip to the plastic cover piece (otherwise it would stick out at 45 plus deg angle and it would look strange). The 3m didn't bite to this other material so well, so I drilled a hole and installed a small screw and washer to keep it tight at the lip termination.

Wow that looks impressive on the Aero bumper, about how much lower would you say it sits, 1.5"?

a little more than that like 1 3/4" or even a hair more. I'll measure it exactly and report when I get a chance.
