What's your favorite front lip/front end for the Z?

You can get it in Glossy cf or in FRP which is flat black.

Oh. Well that is what I was referring to earlier.
I would like to see the plain glossy black CF on black Z if anyone has done it.
Sorry for the confusion.

My Z is the same colour and I totally agree with you. I guess I will be going lipless unless I get a CF lip. Not a huge fan of Blue Pearl and CF combo.

I just bought and installed an ings+ replica front lip. I first had it wrapped in a matte cf film to try to match the look of the evo-r canards (which i had sprayed with a matte clear coat).

I think it came out great. Would've loved to clear coat this piece too, but bodyshop warned me that the vinyl would get ruined by the chemicals. oh well.

Do you by chance have a closer picture of the Side Blades & Front Lip to see how the CF weave matches? Also what Vinyl was used?

I am in process of planning out Front lip, side blade and rear diffuser in CF and seems that the type I like do not come in CF..so seeing ur's vinyl wrapped lip/blades have caught my eye

The side blades (and canards) are CF pieces from evo-r that I had refinished in a matte clearcoat, so the pattern doesn't match.

The front lip was wrapped by a friend of a friend using a matte vinyl. The pattern reminds me of 3m's di noc vinyl.
