Outside Opinions :)
Hey guys, the weather warmed up... kind of, so I decided to freeze my ass and put on the lip I got not too long ago. I was just curious what people outside of the rotary world thought of the lip. I couldn't decide wheather I should cut the bottom part of my bumper off for a larger air dam, or leave it the way it is. It looks good either way to me, but anything on my car looks good to me
..except bird shit. What would you prefer seeing on the road?Here's with the bottom of my bumper intact: ![]() ..and here it is with the bottom cut off: ![]() ![]() Keep in mind, if I were to cut the bottom off, I'd get some mesh and paint it black to put on. So any thoughts, comments, etc. are very welcome.. even if you want to call it rice ..and no, an LS1 will not be occupying the engine bay Thanks a lot, cheers!

Re: Outside Opinions :)
If it's cut off, you need a FMIC in there. If you keep the peice, then just a grill will do fine. And that's final. Thank you.

I just find it more of a clean look. I personally hate the look of FMIC... especially with IC pipes coming out of where the foglights should be etc. I don't even like the look of them on FDs. Thanks for everyone's comments. After seeing what you guys have to say, keeping the bottom of my bumper reminds me of the middle grill of the NSX, so I guess it's not so bad. |

Re: Outside Opinions :)
On the stock NSX, there is a bar in the middle of the air dam, much like my bumper uncut with the bumper.
The picture I posted was to merely show you that not having a FMIC with the Odula lip doesn't look bad Also, the bottom of the bumper is cut on the red FC, so if you read the last sentence, it wouldn't make sense, would it Sorry for the confusion.If you would like, I suppose I could find a picture of an NSX, and then draw giant circles around what I'm talking about. |

Re: Outside Opinions :)
I like it with the bar cut. Rx-7's are real nice. It would be interesting to own a FD one day, after I get an evo 9 lol.
