Would you be able to post a few higher resolution pictures, especially some close ups of an unpainted model. I would also like some additional info, such as:
  • what is the spoiler made from?
  • How many inches of clearence are lost in the front (I am lowered already and dont want to turn my car into a snow plow)
  • How much additional work will need to be done to prep for paint and install
  • How does the spoiler install, some pictures would be great as well.
Thanks, it looks good, but just like me, I am sure people want more info...

They aren't that far from me (well, maybe 90 minutes one way), but I've already got the Cupra R lip on my car.

Your going to spend $150 bucks for a lip you have to cut down and make fit and hold on with screws through the side of your bumper???

I like the look myself.. Just not into duct tape accessories.. LOL
You can find that lip design all day long on ebay for 80 bucks. "He created it" but guess his tape measure was a little off .. thus the need to trim 1 inch off each side.

You can read more here..

I had noticed you in the other thread after I linked it. If he had been totally honest other than "I created it"... well I could see 10-15 dollar R&D fee for finding a "close" fit. Some people feel the need to profit off others.

I like my "LIP" on my Crossfire. I paid $40.00 for it, plus about $12.00 or so for 3M body tape and screws. I did mod the lip to fit by cutting a "V" shaped notch in the lower middle part of the lip that lets it curve to fit the XF. I attached with screws in three places on each side of the front. The tape just held the lip up in position so I could put the screws in and it keeps the lip tight to the bumper. I think it looks good, works well. I did not paint the "LIP" as my car is black, but put vinyl dressing on it to give it a little shine. This was a low cost easy mod to make. Most of all I like it. There were several post I made with pics, if you car to look it over. I have had the car up to 110MPH to make sure there would be no body tear away problems. Anyway, if you like it great and if not that is great too!
