Front lip on a vert?

I'm considering getting a lip for my E93, but after seeing a few photos I'm starting to think it would look odd. Thoughts?

In particular I'm considering a CF lip, probably Arkym, on a space gray E93.

I think it looks ok with the top up, it's with the top down that I'm worried it looks weird. It seems out of place.

When/where is the Pre-MFEST BBQ?

Go with the OEM splitters if you're after a subtle change. Can't beat the quality and fit!

Arkym FTW

I say go with the gloss black PWC version (unless you have other complementing CF mods...I know E93 doesn't have CF roof )...as shown below. We got one left in stock...better grab it before someone else does
