how much clearance do you have from the bottom of your front bumper to the ground? looks like maybe a couple of inches. you should measure it and then find out the dimensions of the CF lip. i would imagine the CF front lip is between 1.5-2.5 inches. You would more than likely need to go VERY slowly if it fits.

I have a mock up lip i just installed last week using double sided tape and garage door weather stripping to see if a lip would get ruined if i were to install one. lets just say it lasted two days before being knocked loose. It cost me 10 bucks for the mock up lip, maybe something to consider before spending the money on a nice CF one.

Just like with Greg, those steep driveways were the culprit with me as well.

I got it from Lowes, or you can go home depot. Its just garage door weather stripping. You can see how it looks in the beggining of the video on the GTO.
right at 15 seconds into the video

Thank you!
No I havent decided yet, but from the looks of it just eye-balling it, I dont think its going to work out. I think it'd just get ripped off going out my driveway![nix](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/nixweiss.gif)
but I am still curious as to the garage door weather stripping idea to test it out?

I have Cf lip on 19 inch with a 1 finger gap in front, its about 2 inch away from the ground, as long as you suspension damper is set hard you should be fine.

hate to revive an old thread, but its that time again....
I am thinking about purchasing the CF front lip but I am in need of some dimensions , if anyone could help me out that would be amazing!
I need to know how much lower the CF lip sits off the front, and sides off the bumper....

Ok, see if this helps, I have Tein Coilovers and in nornal driving it's fine. But on some driveways, I scrape. Like at work, I can drive up the driceway at an angle, but when I exit, I have to back out at an angle.
Here's some pics....
