Front Lips

LCDRJohn · 10-29-2023, 01:52 PM

it would also be nice if there was an option for an injection-molded lip, like on the GT3/GT4 and cup cars.

If you track the cars, you're gonna shatter a CF lip pretty quickly. Not to mention a good construction zone or driveway hit. I've lost the lip on my GT3 twice now, and Porsche designed it to be an easy $300 replacement.

Still no gloss black lips?

Or matte, or anything normal that doesn’t look like it belongs on a transformer. Overall, all avail options are kind of whack that I’ve seen

Hopefully we get an update soon on the AutoID lip as I would buy it in a heartbeat.

This lip is on pre order and doesn’t appear to have winglets? https://www.stradaledesign.com/g87-m...gts-lip-g87-m2

Anyone have any experience with stradale design?

Maxton design. Probably what I’ll be ordering once I lower and see what I can get away with on a daily basis 😄

I am seriously reconsidering a front splitter after hitting multiple speed bumps inside a garage. I was going quite slow and bang!!! F@ck! Then had to literaly stop the car at the highest point of the speed bumps then let it drop sloooooooooooowly!

If space permits cross the speed bumps at a 45° angle instead of head on.

Nothing worked! Well… just going around them but that was not the option all the time… Wont come back to that garage!

Maybe something super thin would work. I just want to “complete” the front look.

Has anyone tried the MHC+ BMW M2 G87 PERFORMANCE STYLE FRONT SPLITTER IN PRE PREG GLOSS CARBON FIBRE?

Looking forward to seeing it as this is the splitter I have been looking at. Did you get it from IND? I am hoping for Black Friday sale

Unfortunately it arrived as if Pilot Freight thought it was a tackling dummy. Both box and lip were damaged badly. A replacement is scheduled for shipping early next week.

Oh, no! That sucks! Sorry to hear that! Hope the replacement makes it in good condition.

It’s difficult to fathom somebody in the delivery chain didn’t notice but instead the all too common “it’s not my job” syndrome prevailed. In a perfect world, there should be some accountability.

Carefree · 11-23-2023, 07:01 AM

Update. I was told on 11/16 a replacement (currently in inventory) would be shipped immediately along with tracking info. Hearing nothing, I requested an update on 11/21 to be told there was an “inventory inconsistency” (shipped to another customer?) and current status is backordered without a firm arrival date. Choices were full refund or priority freight when part arrives. With damaged shipping on original order, inventory “issue”, unknown date for replacement, and lack of serious compensatory offer for inconvenience, I opted for refund. Beginning search for another CF lip.
