Front Lip Help!! (2008 Max)
Hey everyone, so I decided its time to give my front end a little bit more aggressive look, but I can spend that much money. I am in high school and will be attending college in the fall so money is essential. Anyway, I found this (see below) front lip on ebay for my max and was thinking of getting it. Opinions? Has anyone bought/heard of it before? I will also be lowering my max 2" in spring so keep that in mind. Thanks!

I like it from certain angles. Its going to be low with a drop though. I have had to fix my bumper tabs a few times.Name: 7CD9E3F8-3D2D-47E5-818B-2A8042ECCB71_zpsckqg7kc2.jpg Views: 173 Size: 110.2 KB

Nice setup. I think redoing your grill would give the car a little more "personality". Either back to stock or a c-mod. The all black up front is kind of eh..just my opinion. Still looks good though

@ OP thats a nice lip..been thinking about picking up as well

It adds about 2 inches to the bumper. On top of that, the bumper is pretty long so I really have to maneuver the sucker. I don't know how guys like myounz does it. His car is slammed.

After buying my civic I realized why so many kids have them. You can buy a mesh grill for $30, decent coilovers $700, a lip for $50, and have a gazillion choices from a crap load of manufacturers.

They are STR 601. The varrstoens have a better lip.
Honestly though, just save your money and spend it on beer and crack.
