Socal local ppl with front lips (LA area)

M3 Number 86 · 07-22-2016, 01:42 PM

I'm in the market for a lip and wanted to see if anyone local was willing to let me check theirs out in real life before I make a decision. I've seen a shit ton of photos but none in real life in detail.

My options are GTS lip, Vorsteiner lip, Arkym lip.

I'll most likely buy a rep since it'll almost for sure break/damage on me so would like to see yours and your experience. Let me know!

thanks in advance!

My Modecarbon GTS is sitting in my garage (cracked thanks to a valet). You are welcome to come and even test fit it on your car to see what it would look like.

Bought a $2600 front lip... worst financial car related decision I've ever made... Get a $400 lip, they look just as good...

Exactly... I will never buy full price lips or diffusers again.. lips get smashed and diffusers just get burned.. you just cry when you find the damage! or hear the crunch.. Case in point my authentic Vorsteiner diffuser is officially a $1K paperweight because it burned through the weave..

If you still have it in a couple weeks I'll check it out. (That's how long it takes to get to Irvine lol)

Didn't think about gt4 lip because I would need to balance the rear with a wing then.

ebay $100 dollar lips are fine too i smashed 2 sets of splitters before

It's not one of your options but I have a replica 3D Design lip installed on my M4.
It has 4" of clearance even after drop on swift springs.
I'm in Valley Village which is pretty close to Pasadena.
PM me if you wanna check it out.
