Seibon NS Carbon Fiber Lip...Yes or No?

RoadZter · 02-04-2012, 07:34 AM

I'm trying to decide whether or not to keep this Seibon NS style carbon fiber lip. I am either going to have it painted to match the car or replace with something else. I haven't decided yet. What do you guys think?

I like the look, but some paint in certain areas would make it flow better since you don't have any other carbon pieces around the bottom of the car.

I like mine and I think it's one of the more aggressive looking lips. I would also guess that since it's a replica of a nismo piece it's functional as well. But it depends on what you like.

It doesn't seem to flow well without side skirts.

you should deff get side skirts you could see a huge diff in the flow of the car especially in that last pic, but yeh i would paint some areas and keep other areas in CF

Ya, somethings missing on the side. Either get more aggressive sideskirts, or change out the lip for something more subtle.

it looks kinda chunky to me.

anthonyy · 02-07-2012, 05:00 PM

yeah with these you need the skirts...

IMO no rear spats tho

RoadZter · 02-07-2012, 08:06 PM

Thanks guys for all your input. I'm going to try the side skirts and see how that looks. I'll post some after pics. Tks!

kenchan · 02-07-2012, 10:19 PM

yah, i think that should balance it out more.

How does the lip fit. I am thinking of getting the carbon creations lip. Was it difficult to install, and is there a gap between the bumper and the lip?

Go for it!

The seibon lip fits well. I've not seen a carbon creations lip... I've heard the name before, but not sure on fit or quality.
