That looks ���������������������������������������������� awesomenessssss
 
Thanks guys. I am going to raise it a little though. 6'2" 225lbs + low car = scrape all the time

on another note...should i paint the front lip?

No. If you drive it alot you WILL scrape eventually. And in the satin finish you can easily sand/refinish in trim black or satin black. Once it's color matched it'll be a nightmare when you do chip it.

I painted my shine gt lip body color and it looked awesome. But when a parking curb eventually killed it 2 years later it just made it that much more painful. I'm running Oem lip now with very low heights and I'm 255# no scrapes no worries. Just a tad less agressive looks.

West Wings Lip kit is great because of it being poly urethene, and thus fexible.

Saturday at work... Great day for a cruise.
I sure like the height (or lack thereof) mine is lowered to for looks, but I do pick up a lot of little paint chips.
The Wings West lipkit is somewhat forgiving because of the poly urethene material.

Fun to see that difference in clearance! And I like driving both!

Are those LM reps??? They look so good...
 
Hey Jose, the rims are 17"/18" SSR's. They don't make them anymore, but they are awesome rims and cool looking!

Yes those are the Esm Lm replicas with step lips. I love the look but just wish I did not have to use a 3 mm spacer on the the fronts. I think that reason coupled with the low perch made the wheels make contact with the fenders. Just took a while to get the settings right to prevent it.

Take some more pics (And better ones)...looks great!

Love the look...lower it a little though. Makes a huge difference
I have had it lower. That is why I have cracked front fenders and a destroyed shine gt spoiler. It ain't fat boy friendly. It amazes me how you manage to keep your shine spoiler in shape. California has the worsts roads EVER. I wish I still lived in south Florida. I could lower it more.... Don't paint it body color like I did. It only twists the knife when a dip in the road stabs you in the belly....

My lip has its share of damage underneath… I know the roads I drive on pretty darn well so I know what to avoid and where not to drive . Do you still have the cracked fenders? I'd love to take them off your hands… P.m. me please
 
Still on the car. I only cracked them slightly and this was after I put fender liners on.
 
Is it OK to make a little fun of the Red NSX :smile: ?
NSX friends of Ontario, we all had a great day yesterday,
