i think they would look nice but i would rather have the RS1 rear caps instead of the RS1 rear lip cause many people on here have them melting due to their exhaust and IMO the caps look better.

Very true...After helping install my friends CF full Rear LIp the other day I dislike it...the sides arn't low enough to match up w/ the side skirts too!...and the hole for exhaust is a Bad Design too!

thanks for your input guys. i agree with ya in the fact that the 2 piece rear looks better then the single piece. the problem is that i have the oem lip kit on now and i don't really know if they are gonna cover up the holes :(
does anyone have a pic of the holes that are left behind by the stock lip kit?

I got an RS1 CF front lip on my CSM. I'd post pics but my camera phone makes it look bad. I say get it. It looks gorgeous in person. I'm looking for a CF hood to compliment the lip myself. Oh and drilling the bumper ftl. Use hxc double sided tape.

yeah drilled holes ftl lol, i just went outside and i looked under my car and there are nice big slits in my bumper where they hooked the oem kit up to it so i guess ill have to go with the 1 piece rear :(
anyone know of any other c/f rear lips that would work? something that maybe sits a little lower so it lines up better with the skirts.

have you thought about maybe doing just the front lip in CF. that's what I did.

na it would just look a bit out of place with the rest of the kit imho.... people might get the impression that i hit something and destroyed the oem lip. thus having to replace it with on that doesn't match lol
so anyone know of any other cf rear lips?

bBist made the OEM lip in CF. They're out of buisness now but you might be able to buy it off someone on here if you're lucky. I remember someone selling theirs a while back on here.

no the RS1 lip kit wont cover the original slits made for the OEM lip kit. someone tried awhile back and discovered this.

I'm not sure if it will look good on a light color it will look out of place IMO.
