For those asking about installation I just had mine put on.

You do not need any new bolts. You use the OEM ones. Literally took 10 minutes. Just raise the car, undo your bolts, pop the lip on and do the first outer bolt on each side and then peel the 3M tape to attach the middle and start connecting all the bolts.

I will have a video of the install posted soon.

Can you measure the clearance and indicate if/how much your car has been dropped? Thanks.

I have KW V2's on and I honestly don't know how much I have been dropped since I asked for around stock ride height but I am lower for sure. I will have some up close pics taken of the clearance.

I have gone over some bumps and etc already and it has scraped but it is only underneath and not in the middle where it is visible so if your stock ride height you will be fine.

It is turning dark right now and I am at a BMW dealer having an M3 front sway bar & control arms being put on my car so I can't do pictures right now. But tomorrow I will try to get a photo shoot done.

I told myself that I was going to buy this lip, I just wanted to wait til the last day to see how many people were going to be in. From the looks of it, it's only going to be a $57 discount. Damn, this lip is going to set me back a lot more than I thought.

Put off by the shipping price being almost the same as the cost of the lip

I think more people just need to see this lip in person. Had a 135i follow me to a gas station today asking what exhaust I had and what front lip. Easily the best looking mod I have done on my car with LCI taillights being a close second.

I have to agree on the fact that the lip is nice and I could imagine that in person it's even better. It's just that I was expecting a slightly bigger discount from the group buy and I've only purchased three things in my life time so far over the internet, so shipping is always a shocker. I have to think about this one.

Frankly, I was thinking the same thing and the sticker shock of shipping cost didn't help matters.

Maybe if cooler2442 would post those photo shoot pictures it would get more people off the fence

Working on it but a SD card was lost in the process of swapping to another one and unfortunately that one had most of the photos.

I will post some shots I took myself though with my iPhone at the location.

You can see the fence in my pictures and the photographer hopped over it to get some different angles and in the end he thinks the card fell out of his pocket during the hopping. Going to go tomorrow to the location and attempt to look for it again.

It literally looks amazing in person, dramatically changes the look of the car.

Also doesn't help that these are iPhone shots so they aren't DSLR quality thus its harder to see certain things.
