there you thats what i meant a splitter. yeah that would be sick man. maybe like a satin black, not to glossy, it will match the s4 moldings.

 

Sorry, no fat chicks here... I daily my car like that, it is just another style of driving you have to get used to, but i enjoy it. And if i saw pictures of your car, im sure my first thoughts would be lower it.

 

I was looking at it last night saying it needed to be lower, but it scrapes as it is in driveways and even on some streets, the exhaust sometimes on rough roads.

My coupe had coil overs and it would scrape on everything, got a bit annoying

 

well first time driving with the lip and i doubt it will see a splitter on it.

 

Roads must be better in those areas; I couldn't make it out of my driveway, much less around town ANY lower than I am, and I have a solid 2.5-3" from the ground to my front bumper. Shoot, my BMW is 4.5" up, and I still scrape in some areas.

 

Excuses

 

I scrape my daily all the time, and its even higher, there are enough things to worry about when driving the RX7 around then scraping the thing all over the place

 

you guys must have some really **** roads where you are from!!

only problem i have with scrapping things and that is only over speed bumps and that is if they are big ones.. have adjusties and 18x9 18x10's and it sits just like 1low7's and i can drive around my area fine as day!

 

so has anyone got more pics of the lip? if it works upside down i wanna buy one.

 

It works, you just have to drill your own holes just like if it were right side up.

 

its $80 something dollars, take the plunge and try it out yourself, thats not even 2 tanks of gas these days

 

Nah, not an excuse at all. Just a statement of fact. As a general rule, after spending 4-5k in bodywork and paint, I like to keep the car looking decent. Zip tied on half-*** "OMGWTFBBQ" drifter **** doesn't look decent. It looks like what it is. Broken and half ***. Not sure what I'd be excusing anyway, my car looks great, I have no desire to lower it any more than it already is.

It's not race car style either. I work with professional racers. Their **** isn't put together half ***. I get that people like it, more power to them. I'm glad they have found a way to make their cars look like they want them to for 500 bucks and some zip ties. Just don't expect everyone else to love the look; if your street car can't make it up my driveway, it's not functional.

 

WTF is it a secret! Someone post the link where these can be purchased for $80.

 

have you no google or ebay?
I see guys selling them on ebay for like $59

 

Nothing on Ebay. There are all types of volvo part dealers on the web, I can't find one who sells the lip. Dude who posted made it sound like he found an on-line dealer, not ebay, who sold them for $84 shipped. He never responded to my PM.

Found on ebay under front valance/spoiler.

 

$53.48 plus $29.90 S&H= $83.38

sounds like a match to me

 

$10.47 pull a part ftw.

 

i live in hawaii and they dont ship to us so i get to call some junkyards when i get some money this summer...

 

got mine mounted up, fits like factory.

i used all the factory screws, and clips too, just had to drill holes in the right spots.

for $84, its a polyurethane lip i wont mind hitting on the ground.

 

1/8" aluminum splitter = lowered scratch guard.

 

yeah, there are more than several available on ebay if you don't want to hit up the junkyard. just look up "front lower valance". here's an example.

cool fitment by the way.

 

you missed my point....its a cheap *** $80 lip, i do not care if it gets destroyed.

 

strong bump but I wonder how'd this look on an S5.

 

cheap

 

yea an s5 bumper deserves better.
