jevansio Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) Just wanted to say a massive thanks to Paul for supplying me with my new carbon TS style lip. The quality of the CF is mint & it matches my TRD/RMM full carbon rear spoiler perfectly. I know cf doesn't go with black great but I'm thinking I'll be leaving this unpainted (at least for the moment) as I think the cf accents the car nicely (might even go for a TS carbon rear duffuser to complete the look). It's going to be a bumper off job to fit so I'll tackle that this weekend, I'll get pics up of it fitted then (after the car has had a wash too as it's pitted) Here's a couple of pics of it after I've unwrapped it Edited August 31, 2008 by jevansio (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 like that i do.......... Cheers bud Looks like a super high quality version of my Wings West RMM, hope you get a nice fitment, mine looks like an idiot put it on! (I did ) How much if you dont mind? I noticed yours at the meet we had for Lew, it looks like it was put on well enough to me. I can't remember the exact price, roughly £400 give or take. My god Jay, everything I want to do to my car your getting! You already mistaken my car for yours on the dyno day - I don't know how... yours is unreal Great minds an' all that my good man it does look nice but i think the active spoiler looks fantastic on a black car I know what you mean, I've had the active spoiler look for 2 years now so fancied a small change, but I'll be keeping it incase I do want to go back as it does look sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlT67 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I think a splash of carbon here and there on a black car is a nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It lines up superb, but I guess I'll have to make sure where it joins the load is spread across the entire length of the lip, I might make some new braces for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Should look great Jay, save you some weight taking the active spoiler off too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Should look great Jay, save you some weight taking the active spoiler off too! Cheers James, they weigh roughly the same TBH, my active spoiler had no gubbins, it was just the rubber lip bonded to the bottom of the bumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I re-used the metal brackets which held the original lip on. I used stickaflex to hold the sideparts on. I cut notches in the carbon(with a dremmel) for the bracket bolts to slide in to,the brackets hold the splitter nicely in place. There is a thread about fitting these somewhere.

Homer Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I like the look of it if it was the same colour as he rest of the car. I just don't see the appeal of CF parts to be honest, it makes it a little stuck-on/barry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
