and so on! We did the CS Odula lip (though other's pictures show it off better) and like UncleDavid said added the Tii skirts to "complete the look". But then it made the rear bumper look incomplete so we added the CS bumper caps during spring break...

In case anyone asks, the wing is from a 90's Mitsu 3000GT. It just needed a little epoxy putty to match the bottom of the posts to match the curve of the trunk lid.

Yes we did. That was easy. Of course, extending on UncleDavid's theme now we have to shave the OEM brake light. And the OEM antenna hole in the left rear corner panel, and the mounting holes for the logos...

hhxobey, basically unbolt the factory lip off the s4. wrap the pignose lip around the bumper and stretch it to the corners (requires 2 people). while your buddy is holding the lip up on the fender, grab the drill and some self tapping screws and put 2 of them in the fender. move to the other side and re stretch the lip back around the fender (it probably fell) and then more screws and then just work your way around the front of the bumper adding screws to hold it on. thats how me and my buddy did it on his s4. looks amazing. its an easy job. it took us about 20 minutes taking our time lol. good luck. hope it was a good enough explaination.

I have the cs "odula" lip, then ive used the 626 lip on the s4s

then there was this lip I found on the side of the freeway, it is the top part of a ford truck bumper actually 2000 yr or so, had to cut a bit out of the center section, probably coulda looked better with more time and effort but ohh well.
