I am no longer afraid of the streets of LA

ROB_S2K · 06-20-2012, 12:10 PM

No not from the mean streets of skid row but from the incredibly bad roads and driveways around here...And to prove this point I soldiered on into the industrial streets of Downtown Los Angeles. Armed with a new prototype lip from Revinora, a pro photographer I laughed at steep driveways and speed bumps we encountered.

In all seriousness this car is my daily driver and even though my previous R-CRT lip garnered rave reviews from the general public and car enthusiasts alike , I had to switch things up.

After much consideration and cracking my 2nd lip I decided to call up Revinora and see what could be done. We sat down and spoke about possible designs and one thing was certain; I wanted to keep the general style of the R-CRT but make it streetable. So we came up with this: the R-CRT Street. This lips lowest point is the OEM bumpers lowest point (check the side profile shot) It just goes straight out horizontally from there. I have absolutely no problems clearing driveways now and some I can even take head on. I am so excited about this 'feature' lol.

I want to give a big thank you to Revinora for all their help and Michael Kirst (DARK_M3) on the forums for the amazing photos.

Enough babbling and onto the pictures hope you all enjoy.

looks great! love the color!

That colour looks so much like mine. I do wonder if the US Laguna Seca blue is the same paint code as UK Santorini... Hmmm. Nice lip by the way. I need something like that on the front of mine to finish it off.

LOL all the photoshoots I've done end up being in cloudy weather. So the color looks different in these shots.
