I have just reccieve the lip. I was hoping that this lip would lower the car's front bumper. but in actuality it fits right over it so that all it does is make the bumper flare out. NOW here is the question, Do any of you guys with this lip installed it lower than it is suppose to fit? please help me on this installation.

the only way to make it lower would probably be to put something in between the bumber and the lip. but that be pretty hard because you would have to attach it to both the bumper and the lip i think. but to stay safe I would just install it like it is.

dude, how much did you pay for your wingwest lip?
also, what color is your car? if you have the midnight blue, would you please install it & take picts before you paint the lip to see how it looks black?
i want to get one of those. oh yah, if you wanna lower the front bumper profile, you have to get a lowering kit on your sus. that is the best and fastest way to get a lower front end. :D
thanx dude.

sorry for asking over and over and over again, but is that pre-painted black a matt black or glossy? if it's matt (flat), I wanna try installing it without painting it. I've seen some 3-series in dark blue with matt black lips...they looked sweet. :D
