Has anyone bought or seen this lip??
Im not sure if it would be too much carbon fiber or if itd look odd no an AW... I always loved the look of the mtech with the carbon splitters on an AW but im not sure if this is going to look as good. Ive seen it on a black and grey coupe and it looked good but I think thats because you couldnt REALLY notice the carbon fiber. On an AW this is going to stick out a lot. Let me know what u guys think |

It'll stick out, but I personally don't like how ALL of the 'splitter' areas are CF. I would just paint the outer portion of the splitters and leave some CF visible on the surface

^Yea because when i've seen some pictures, i feel that the CF area got lost into the dark concrete color. Having the outer portion painted creates a shape to that area, you know?

Like this? I think this would look good. Maybe have the carbon fiber fade into the white on the side. Either way, what i didnt like about this lip is that the carbon fiber is really long. |

Id do something like this. Leave the the bottom CF and rest is body color. Also depends how much cf on the bottom you leave.
