not bad....I like kits that are subtle.

my favorite is the add on for the 95 made by kaminari

basically its like flares for the stock bumper. it is a complete replacement but made of urthane. im considering it cause no on has it, and it would make the 95-96 body style look better. i don't like the smile......

actually, no im pretty sure its just an air dam lip that afixes to the bottom of the bumper.

It was on dsmTalk a year or so ago. They had lots of problems with them breaking on lowered cars.

waste of money. It will surely break off the first time you pull into a fast food place that has a sharp angle of entry.

i think it would josh, i found one of ebay with a starting bid of $50. you should look around for prices, that website seems a little high.

hmmm, makes me think more into it. i would just be worried with lowering the car and having that on there, its just asking to get ripped off

thats just like me puttin the carbon fibre lip on mine after i lower it, i know theres a risk of it being pulled off -- but honestly i dont care what anybody says im doing it -- if u like it put it on -- just drive careful

and i like it, i say go for it

thats looks sweet. And its urethane :thumb I dont know why but my friend thought it would be a good idea to put a fiberglass front lip on his 03 Protege 5...even though he was one of the first in the states with the piece, it seemed like a dumb idea to me seeing how his car was already lowered. 3 weeks and 1 pothole later lip=about 60 pieces :bash isnt Tsunami kind of a cheapy company though? Makes me wonder about it.

It's a completely idiotic idea. Just walk away and put your money back in your wallets. My car is lowered - not slammed low like Whitlows but reasonably lowered and I already have a problem with my front bumper smacking the ground. I have to pull into my driveway at a weird angle to keep from smacking my bumper. You do know when you tap your brakes that the front end of your car goes even lower. So if you are in danger of hitting something...you are really gonna hit it hard if you touch your brakes.

If one of you guys buys that and installs it and I hear ONE WORD of complaint on this forum because it broke off then I will make it my personal goal in life to ridicule you to death in front of the whole club.

...and I mean that in the nicest way.
