Default anyone with either abs dynamics lips?

I was wondering if anyone had any other pictures besides the ones on their offical website of xb (preferably white xbs) of either lip kit installed.

any fitment issues? is it just double stick taped on?

SEXB909 has the front lip in carbon fiber. There may be a pic in the Pacific South forum in the "WC meet" thread. It's white too. As far as I know, there were no fitment issues with it.

You may want to contact Bbist about that other front lip. I believe he is now producing that lip or something similar to it.

MicroVan, I notice that you are NOT running the OEM lower grill, did it not fit with the ABS Dynamics lip?

Answer to your question will be a "heLL NO". sorry

take a look at my front liscense plate. Imagine it. The plate is mounted on the bottom side of the main bumper. Prior to installing the ABS kit, the plate was vertically alligned at 90 degrees.

Look at my second pic. see how my front plates has a angle of 100-110 degrees,.This lip pulled down the bottom part of my bumper and the 2 side pieces of the bottom grill will not go on. And it looked nasty on my car. it was PW all exposed.

This is why I am not running the oem grills. well, they are still behind the mesh -2 end pieces. it's not noticeable with the pull once I made a mesh that fit in the spot. Not even up close, but I know.

I will be installing my ABS Dynamics front and rear lips today! I cant wait. If anybody wants to buy the side skirts I have my set for sale. I already had aftermarket skirts installed and didnt need the ones from the kit. I have a thread for them in the classifieds section. Check it out!


Good thing Im not running the stock grills...

Default nice lips

Uh Oh...I have those front and rear lips on order! Do I have to custom fabricate a lower grille to fit then? Is there someone already making one that will fit there? Hmmm...side skirts?

I have 2 ABS lips. 1 plastic and 1 Carbon Fiber. Both fit the same as it is not 100% perfect. The CF lip is a bit harder to work with because it is a bit stiffer than the plastic lip.

the mess is where the lip meets the bottom bumper, the lip seemed to have a more curved dip inward and that is causing mine not to meet the bottome of the bumper correctly. I had no problem putting the lip on at all and was a breeze, hopefully yours will not have this problem!

DJ, No need to cut anything. if anything, you need to add to cover the gap between the bottom grill and the lip. this is why I made a new mesh grill. Keep the dremel in the box, wait to unleash it

well in that case ( grabs duct tape & bondo) LOL J/K

I'll just install them & go from there. I like the rear painted to match & the front black, kind looks like a splitter, but I'll probably paint them all when the car gets he's (secret color)

I got my ABS kit installed today! Looks amazing. I didnt have any fitment issues with the rear but the front I had a small problem. Two of the four holes werent in the right spot at all. I didnt even deal with it. With the two end screws in and with the lip sitting in the groove its plenty secure...

I highly recommend this kit to anybody.
