me personally think the grill would look better if had projecter headlights.. That way you have round foglights by round looking headlights.. but with stock headlights just seems to contrast to much.. but thats just me..

The lip is awesome. Get a paint job to match that stuff and you're good.

I have the lower lip kit in black, not cf.
I get alot of great compliments on the lip.
Only thing with the lip kit is that it does not align the end cap (those 2 end caps) of the lower grill. the end caps will not set in securely & it can fall off when driving.
With your box being lowered, be careful of those deep trenched driveways. it will handle the abuse but the thought of the lip scraping the asphalt gives me grief.
the end caps can be held down securely with a little imagination (flat round head bolt & wing nuts. drilling reqd.) etc.
I will try to send some pics so you know what I mean. (bolts, end caps etc.)
also there is the whole kit; ss, rear.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHhhhhhh! My eyes hurt!

Too much going on. WAY too much.

This is the xB with the CF fenders, too, isn't it.

I have no problem with the individual styling decisions (I even like the checkerboard paint), but, man, they just don't work together.

Less is more.... Less is more...

Oh, and while you were working on the thing, couldn't you have painted the AC coolant line behind the bottom grill black?

A big flaming pile of ____ can draw attention if that's all you want. That's the easy part.

After that you want people to come away with a positive impression, not a negative one.

It may not matter, but the grill (w/out the fogs) is already made out of ABS.

I have one- Racing Solutions sells it.
