Not trying to jump into this Eurotech vs. whoever war. But in this pic, the lip doesn't appear to be installed correctly. Well maybe "correctly" isn't the right verbage....lemme say on my silver, I don't have the downward angle slant from front to rear that this one does on the side. Just my 2 cents

I am not sure if i want to bring in some more, since Neal had contacted me and told me the whole story.
I am hoping there are no more issues with that.

The funny thing is how people this this is something totally new, these guys on the forums should be smart enough to realize that the lip is IDENTICAL to ours and has been around for a while already. Everyone can easily notice they all look the same. As far as the downward angle on it, yep, ours do that which is why we have the screw on the side to prevent them and you did not put them there which is why it is facing down. Darwin check your PM btw.

OT question:
Did selling these front add-ons pay for your Viper and CLS?

The lip goes perfect with your car white_w203. Please take care of the slanted angle though.

Quote: Dun Dun duhhhhhhh, euroteck garbage talk was known to come into this thread. DAMN we all know it wasnt ordered from euroteck lol, i hate reading this BS over and over, jus say it looks good and give the man his props, no ones getting these things illegally, i can make them in my back yard like butter, who cares. lets all get over this, k thanks rah rah rah.

the lip looks great bro, when u gonna get the c55 spoiler haha, man im waiting for that more than u are lol, oh yea and paint the roof black, itll be sex.
Sure it wasn't ordered from Euroteck but probably sold by the company that was contracted by Euroteck to produce them. That is I-L-L-E-G-A-L! The reason I said "probably" is because no facts were given publicly but Darwin's response of not wanting to carry them anymore after hearing Neal's story is pointing in that direction. Ethics will take you further in this world than the desire to make a quick buck. Not many businesses know the meaning of that these days with the manufacturing company of these lips being a prime example.

i understand sdsilverm3, i jus i keep hearing these rumors about euroteck not copywrighting/owning this mold, so to me its as if ther jus complaining about this due to a broad group learning about this mold and taking advantage of it, but i understand the ethic/business mentality of it. im really not taking sides, its jus white203 jus got a butt end of it, when he posted and as do all ppl who get a hold of this lip, ther all jus giddy about getting a new mod for ther car, but then they get reamed and asked where and how they got it and want receipts lol. im jus really sure that everyones aware of this issue...and so forth...i almost bought this lip from another group buy but backed out of it b/c of this...its jus a matter of supply and demand sometimes...ur gonna get the bite if you got the bait...cant throw an empty hook into the water and expect to catch a shark.

rlee....those splitter rods would look horrible IMO on this lip...its a lip spoiler, not a splitter/lip...i jus think itll look unnecessary. looks much cleaner without.

...makes me wonder HOW IN THE WORLD one can drive around with such a lip UNLESS the car is raised from factory setup...I cannot even put my fist upright underneath my front bumper as it is WITHOUT a lip...

Call me foolish but I still want it! I might even try the rods... might regret it though, but at least I can say I tried it and it was a foolish idea.

As for the lip, it looks the same as euroteck's. If they're different, then it's a good copy cause I can't see any difference basing on these pictures.

its the way of sf-krew, tucked asses. i give props for having it that low, and not having issues with a 19 in wheel. also, he already stated that his rear looked lower because of the dip at carlab's parking. im gonna have to make a trip to see darwin and have my rear pads switched when i get my wheels, i should have never switched my pads to 3's, even tho its only a few mm, i can tell lol. ha. we'll see what it looks like when i get some wheels tucked in ther.

oh i jus forgot to ask, hey white203, do u have carbon door pillars?, i attempted to go the ebay route and got some wack *** ones , they were real carbon fiber jus didnt fit right, and they had no resin clear coat, jus a thin seal so it actually felt bumpy/rough from the carbon weaves lol, i have to return them this week. from the pics it looks like u do, i was jus wondering. if so what kind do u have or where did u get them, id spring for the c32 ones if they didnt run 4-500 bucks.
