Any one make a rubber front lip?

Oeb36 · 07-08-2021, 10:09 AM

Anyone make a rubber front lip that won’t crack or break ! Or maybe a non carbon cheap lip .. tired of dishing out all this money for carbon lips .
And yes I do drive it carefully over bumps etc . It’s always something stupid ..

I hit a re tread on the high way this time .

It seems as if there is a good demand for these but I haven't seen them.

Oh I like that I think I may order

that looks nice on the OG, imo does not work as well with the M2C because of the cutouts.

I know there are some CS replicas on ebay for $150 shipped that are not carbon. I have scrapped the front 1 time too many to ever consider anything carbon up there.

I can’t imagine it being that heavy. That really strong 3m double side tape may work

I had that thought, but that would be a BAD thing to come loose/detach at speed on the track.

About the closest thing I have found. have not bought it and don't intend to.https://www.amazon.com/HengJia-Rubbe...a-593588537194

Here's another option for consideration if interested. Maxton Design has several versions front splitters but the more recent ones will need to be pre-ordered. I don't know how well they function performance wise, but I do like the look.

Similar but not as high quality from what I've heard

I have it on my car, it's made of thick black foam core while the lightweight one is machine ABS or some other hard plastic.

It's a bit fragile, I'm missing a small bite from some stone that hit it.

But for the price I can't be happier. Makes the front end look better and I prefer it to be sacrificial.

JKen_0115 · 09-06-2021, 08:41 AM

I kind like the fin in between the bottom bump and top of lip. There is nothing in between for Lightweight. Am I missing anything here?

MooMooM2 · 09-06-2021, 12:33 PM

I am going to get a lightweight myself, seems really strong which is what I want in the front of the car. Anything carbon or fragile will break. I considered the restore but at half the price of the lightweight its a good deal but if it breaks and have to buy another one then you almost at lightweight prices.
