What is the real world difference in Gary's 2 front spoilers XY and standard?

Hey all;

First, a great thanks to Gary to his quick response to my emails.

He sells 2 different front spoilers, a standard God Hand style and an XY or longer version of it.

While he did send me some pictures of them, I just can't tell how much different one is from the other.

Does anyone on the board have experience with either?

Thanks!

LOL, yes i know its more aggressive but can you or anyone be more specific?

How much longer, does it rub, is it over bearing compared to the smaller one?

Thanks!

Go with the God hand. Looks like you painted the grille black?

Which one is the God Hand?

Yes, replaced the Front Grille

figured out the stumble after the rebuild. Car was running rough but did not throw any CEL's

Figured out that the Y intake tube behind the motor was not seated correctly

Looking to do the CF rear spoiler, 4 pod differ and front spoiler. combined with lowering links and new black wheels.... Then some tint, blacked out chrome and long tube headers...

XY here and no real issues with rubbing or scrapping. Did hit a parking block thing a few weeks ago but it would of mattered what lip I had on as the car is low.

XY here and yes it looks more aggresive than the godhand.. It just comes down to personal preference... Initially I was going to go with the godhand until I saw it in person, not agressive enough for me so I went the XY route....

A profile view of both lips installed would help

i had the other one installed the godhand prior to the XY.. had it for a bit just didn't cut it for me wasn't as aggressive as i want it to look. So i bought the XY rocked it for a a decent amount of time until a drive to Miami doing 145 and some road dip i guess decided to take it away from me..... yes i was sad and hated looking at the front bumper lol, but than i reordered one and got back in the game. Best looking lip in my opinion

**moose will tell you how sad i wsa hahah
