This is a link to the Type 1 lip on shines ebay page. This lip is not to close to the ground(read short) and would probably be best for Nor Cal crappy roads.

I think im deciding against the hiro because it also covers part of the bumper, and im leaviing it unpainted, cause I like it that way, So im pretty sure its gonna be the Type 1 lip.

I wanna see CassMori's pics

Please don't buy the Hiro like I did :) You need to be different!! :)
This lip holds on by itself for pictures. Hiro is the shit...I wish I could find the rear Hiro add-on for a reasonable amount.

Maybe... ;)

I was hoping you would chime in...

Can ya post some more pics?
yer lucky - I just took a few new ones the other day ;) They're kinda biggish, the angles are not great (I took them to match previous pics, to compare the difference in height after I swapped the coilovers for TTR suspension), and one came out sorta blurry, but here ya go:

When I get my paint redone, I intend to mold it into the bumper, I think. I've had it on for almost exactly 10 months, and about 16k miles, and it's held up great. Got a few scratches on the underside center from scraping in the parking lots at school a couple of times, but even 2" lower than where it is now (the TTR springs raised my front 2" and the rear 1" compared to the Ohlins) it would just clear the curbs at school - by about 1/16" or so :). Even unpainted, it's weathered really well, finish wise, and structurally it is unchanged. Shine really did a great job on these, in my opinion :bigthumb: - of course, that would probably apply to any of the products they make.

Nice pictures.....glad I bought the Hiro. :)
Are you going to paint it blue to match?

cwd
What I really want to do is paint the car to match the upper nose - the JDM Forest Green Metallic. But yeah, whichever color I end up using the lip will be painted to match.
Someday :wtc:

Thanks Buddy. Im gonna go with this lip now.

np :bigthumb: . Hope you're as happy with it as I've been. I just wish I could have it closer to the ground! I'd like to be able to push small debris & road kill around on the highway....maybe even coins :icon_bigg . But around here, I'd end up ripping it off on a sewer cover or some such if it was that low.
