Front aero kit facts

This is the best question asked. I seriously do not know how it scraped in the middle. I will definitely have to re think every place that I drive. I guess no more speed bumps anymore. I’ve had the car 9 yrs. I should have bought the Aero at least 7 yrs ago. I love the way it looks now.

This is not my Supra but I had that same Wing West lip aka Snow Plow and it was low.

There is the gloss black plasti dip option to hide the scratches a little bit more.

I ordered the eBay lip. The paint shop gave me the rest of the paint so I could touch it up. Man you are going to love the front aero. Are you going to replace your dear deck lid?

I can't wait. It completely transforms the front end of our cars. I wanted the Getty Ducktail but now want to lean more towards the Aerokit rear spoiler or GT3 if I can find one. I can go with the Touring look for now.

True. I ordered and picked mine up from Harpers in Knoxville so I saved on the shipping. The paperwork looks like it came from Porsche ATL and thinking about ordering another one to keep in the stock pile before they run out.

The scraping is exactly why I will not paint the lip on mine. I purchased my car with the aero front bumper and lowered on H&R. I completely tore the lip up within weeks of acquiring the car. Driveways and entrances to parking lots are the major culprits.
I initially took the ebay lip route thinking I would go through 2 lips / year. Although the ebay lip was a great fit and good quality, it lasted a couple of months. I ended up going with FCP to take advantage of their lifetime warranty. Even though the lifetime warranty policy has changed somewhat, I think I'll go through enough lips where FCP will be worth it. I am also going to swap the H&R's for Eibachs (already have them, just need to install them) which should raise the front end up some.

This is great info about FCP. When you change out your H&R’s are you going to change our both the front and the back or just the front? The reason that I ask is because I love the way our cars look with the H&R’s.

The drop in the front is a lil too much for me on the H&R's (see photos below). I read that if the front strut mounts wear out the front drops even more and thought this was the problem. I installed new mounts... no change.
