Exteme dimension racer front lip installed(chin spolier)

I got a deal on this front lip and decided to buy it. I like it a lot better than the MMR chin splitter I had installed before. Looks like it is a copy of the Razzi body kit. Let me know what you think, here is a link to my old chin spoiler to compare to.
Next week I should be installing the Cervini C-500 1/4 panel scoops.

Looks good. How does it attach - any holes to drill?

Yes, I drilled two screws holes one in each fenderwell, I also used 3M tape a long the front part of the lip so it does not flap around

Personally, I hate it. But it's not my car and I'm glad you like it.

That is a new one, haven't seen it before. Something about it, it looks a little too much like an add on, doesn't flow with the body lines. The way it reflects light at so many different angles gives it an unfinished look, like it was hand laid fiberglass and not sanded/prepped enough. Hard to explain, it just doesn't flow well.
But, hey, looks better than stock, just not for me. And it is different from all the others, nice to be unique.

I think the reason for that is because it is new paint, the paint job in IMO is pretty good, just as good as my ducktail, if not better. The problem is, the front bumper is 4 years old and has a lot of very small rock chips in it that make it dull looking and not shine as much as a new one would with fresh paint. My car is due for a wax job and hopefully that will help with the difference in shine.
Yeah I don't like the CDC front chin spoiler because I feel that does not match the cars body lines and everyone love that chin, but I guess that why we have our own tastes.

Well, so everyone likes the MMR splitter better, I take it?

If I had had a black car and a V8 I'd have spent the $75 and got it and tried it as well. I think it looks pretty good on your car (wax it and it should look better)...but I think only on a black car. It is bulky and does look like an add on but the black will hide that fact...besides what else can you get for $75? Well...other than a GT500 chin spoiler. Looks good.

I prefer the gt500 spoiler. Mod it properly and it finishes the front nicely. That kind of looks like Qagmire with double chins....Not my taste.

Dosent matter what others think its your car, personally I think it looks good ties in with the gloss rockers on the gt and balances out the rear spoiler. only 75 bucks? very cool! I have 60 just in paint and prep and did it myself.

Yeah I am just getting opinions, I think its pretty obivous my tastes do not agree with the majority who frequent these boards and I am cool with that.
It really ended up costing $175 after paint.
to be honest I am a little surprised that most people think it doesn't look right on the car especially when I looked at every chin spoiler out there and this was one of my top pics even before the low price. I looked at the CDC, cervini, GT500, etc and they all looked like what everyone is talking about with this one.
Oh well, I appreciate everyones feed back, but I still like it, lol.
