one of the nice things about this lip is you could cut it so its shorted for lower or do your own design and just use this as a base to cut parts off of.

I think if you cut it short it will end up distorting because you are taking the rolled edge off it?

cool... Its nothing new for the tunerss though mainly e30s and mkII and III dubs. I actually have one on my 16v scirocco. Can almost fit on any car and looks good doing it and another plus there are tons of these lips readily available.

LMAO. Undrivable != proper fitment.

On a positive note, all the people on this latest fad sure do help my car look nice.
