They are all add ons, but the lip has been molded into the front bumper with body filler (I think that's how it is done I honestly don't know) so there are no lines between the bumper and the lip. The rear pieces have been glued on and they won't ever come off, so maybe molded isn't the right term, but I dont know what else to call it.

Moulded would be "add on" part that have been blended/grafted into the existing panel so no seam is visible. Like my front end.

Fair enough. The front is molded the rear is glued ;)

It looks kickass. Great deal for someone with a 40th.

Ic. That makes sense.
How does the molding hold up with rubbing on roads?
Has it cracked ever??

No cracks or anything, there are a few scrapes on the bottom from regular driving. The lip is on there for good.

I was thinkin of doing the same with mine, but worried it would crack if there is zero play in the lip.....

Shouldn't be a problem if installed properly.

Well I got rid of the TS brace bar cover and found an Amuse version. It should be delivered this week. I also dropped my car off yesterday to get a half cage installed, that should be finished in the next 7-10 days... Can't wait!!!

I wish I could get people to do things that fast around here.

Anyone close to Chicago? I'm considering making the drive up there the weekend of June 7 and 8th for the Offset Kings show.
