OK Guys, I ran into a fellow that actually makes Lip Spoilers, Bodykits for import cars. He currently produces ones for the 350Z and G35 coupes and sedans. During our conversation, he didn't realize that they was a demand for lip spoilers and body kits for the Altima Coupe. He is interested in making a lip spoiler for the coupe but wanted me to get a "feel" from you guys of what is desired. As of this point, I know of only 2 companies making such products, Stillen and Fox Marketing. I myself would like him to produce a lip spoiler similar to the one featured in the white Artisian Alitma at the SEMA show. What are your guys thoughts of a lip spoiler design? If we can agree on a design, I can present it to him and I can get a cost of how much it will be shipped to you. BTW, it will be made out of Urethane. Not FG or ABS.

The floor is open to suggestions!

One just like the extreme dimension one (the one on fox marketing's altima)but a little higher off the ground so that it doesn't seem out of place.

I second this.

Im looking for a lip spoiler but nothing good is out. The Stillen one isnt too bad but I want something a little more like the artisan coupe has. Just not so low so it catches every pot hole and tears off on me.

Called and emailed the guy. (He's got a blackberry) Waiting to hear back from him. Will check up on him tomorrow. So far everyone is looking for the ED lip but modified in such a way that it's not as low to as the SEMA AC. And to be available for both coupe and sedans. Does anyone know if the front bumper is the same as the sedans? If all else fails, I'll get with my buddy who has a 07 2.5 SE and measure his bumper out....

how about a lip exactly like the ED one and just make a pair of side skirts and rear lip to match it?

+1 for a more conservative version of the Extreme Dimensions. The big thing for me would be if I could get it pre-painted. Then I could install it myself and save $$ on installation/painting.

man your car will look off if it only has a front lip and no sides and rear to match it. Anyway, if you guys want it alittle higher, how about he makes it an inch higher? That way it'll give it atleast an inch or 1.5 inch drop. Also I dont think getting it pre-painted would be a good idea. Should see what will happen to the paint on the kit after shipping.

How about these sides and rear? Its a Kenstyle kit for the g35. I believe the ED front lip is an Ings front lip for the g35. Or how about something like the Ings sides skirt?Sides: http://www.bulletproofautomoti...1.jpgRear: http://www.kenstyleusa.com/pro...4.jpg

Also how about a front like this? http://www.body-kitz.com/conte...e.jpg
