CF Front spoiler options

Decisions decisions...

Whose running what front bumper spoiler? Let's see them. Trying to get an idea of what route to go. I like the OEM Competition one's but not 100% as of yet.

I've decided on doing a GTS Style Front Lip.

I've had the challenge lip for a while now, it's my favorite one out there. Here's a photo. The Vorsteiner GTS-V looks great as well.

I just installed this last weekend: https://www.modecarbon.com/product/e...front-spoiler/

I'm still tweaking things to see if I can reduce the space between the lip and the bumper on both sides. But overall, I'm pleased with the product. Since the car is still up in air so my pics don't give a good feel for how the product looks. We'll see how long it lasts. Although it sticks out a bit from the bumper, it's still above the stock felt "skid plate" setup. This is in contrast to the euro OEM lip I installed in my corrado, which hangs lower than the stock US setup.

Go take one look in the Exterior Styling subforum.

It exists for a reason.

I'm sure fitment is good, I just can't justifying spending $900 on something that can potentially break off.

I found this one for a bit less and seems to be a decent fit for what the price is...

Nice find! Looks like the identical product. I couldn't tell you if one is better than the other without seeing it in person, so why not? I'm sure you could return it if the product doesn't look as nice as you are expecting. Let us know how things go if/when you pull the trigger. It took like 2 months to get my Mode lip because they claim they make them when they are ordered, so I'm curious to know if AJM has a similar approach.

I reached out to him and he said he has some in stock ready to ship.

I have always been a fan of the RKP on E9X.

This got my attention. Let me know if you pull the trigger. Would like to see a review on the fitment and quality.

Hmm looks great in that install video. I wonder if AJM is responding to quote inquiries in their sponsor threads? Last post was three weeks ago with no replies. Trying to see how active this sponsor is.
