here's another snap I found online of my car, from the looks of the lips i've seen in person, spending money on a lip will be a waste since i'll probably crack it in no time, considering going Arkym Front and Bootlid. Maybe GT5 if I can find some available.

I like the drop but wheels have to go (for me) and if you put on a front lip it will shear off. I was that low and had to raise it up due to the front lip. Now I clear everything and still have that look coming up behind someone that my car is scrapping the ground in front.

I say leave it like this.

Haha i understand the wheels aren't everyone's taste, and no raising it is not an option, just considering a different style front end and bootlid.

Agreed.

True, I would play around with different, not so extreme front lips. You have a good theme going here and with the right lip it should make the car sit more aggressive.

Very slight rubbing in the rear on sharp turns (with EDC on comfort). Front rubs fender liner a little on compression as well. Have a KW sleeve kit ready to go on.
Thick in the rear just like my wife! Love it.

No rubbing with or without the spacers up front with the 275s. I am rather low on the TCKlines, maybe have a couple threads left that it could go lower but I am low enough as it is now.
