I took a few pics today and realized that I need a lip.....or possibly a whole new front bumper. Just have to figure out which one to go with. Does anyone even make a lip/splitter for the stock bumper?

Thanks. I figured I'd get some pics before the next dust storm blows through. A black car doesn't stay clean very long out here in the desert

The options seem to be rather limited if wanted to keep the stock bumper. Looks like a new aftermarket bumper is the way to go

not too many add-on front splitters to the non M sport LCI front bumper. I think there are only one or two. Definitely go with an aftermarket front bumper. Mind as well get the M tech side skirts as well (oem or rep)

I might as well replace the rear too while I'm at it

Will this carbon lip fit an LCI?

I think it would look pretty sweet painted jet black with the lower cross brace left exposed as bare carbon
