Default JP Lip Kit... Show it off Please

Hello to all. Well I have been waiting to see this kit on actual users cars, so that I may finally decide whether or not I want to purchase one lol. The thing is from the pictures that are offered on this site It is very limited to the angles at which they are taken. So this is why I come to you guys so that maybe you may all help me out and post up the pics of the JP Lip Kit for the tC. This will also make searching for photos alot easier. Thank you all and Have a great day.

Im not that big of a fan of this lip kit. I will probably wait for the 5axis kit to come out.

i think all of 3 people actually have recieved their kit so you wont see many pictures of it.

and IMHO the fiveaxis (now being carried fromt he dealers) will be overpriced.

i think the best kit out there is still the OEM or the rs1 but thats just my opinion.

I saw this at HIN Nightshift Pomona.

He re-painted the kit and the whole car.

I liked it 10x more after seeing it in person.

there aren't alot of pictures of the kit because no one (but one car) has received the kit yet. JP is trying their best to assure great fitment which is quite hard to do when your factory is based in Japan where there are no tCs. The test fit process is complete and the kits have been made and are shipping to JP from Japan in the next few days. Then we wait for the kits to clear customs and then they come to us,

I will have extensive photoshoots done late may when I get my car back from Solo Customs and I am sure you will not be disappointed.

If you have any additional questions about the kit feel free to contact me and I will try to help out the best I can.

Hmmm
I think if it was molded into the bumper (smooth out the lines) it would look hot. Now I'm a noob when it comes to lip kits so does anyone actualy mold their lip kits?

Ya molding a lip kit to a bumper is cool cuz if something happens your cool. Just get a new bumper, no problem. If you mold a bumper to the rest of the car, then you better really like the way that car looks and you better not drive it daily.

molding isnt really that great of an idea for daily drivers because of the high risks of cracking where the lip is molded on. I would be molding it if I didnt put 25000 miles on my car a year.
