Illusion lip for sport bumpers installed
If I have time tomorrow (this will depend on when the damn paint shop gets done with it) I can post some pics of my Illusion lip as well! I was surprised at how dirt cheap these things are on eBay! Albeit mine was quite distorted when it arrived.... no matter, installed it on the car for a week (while I was figuring out where to get it painted) and when I pulled it off it was shaped perfectly. Fitment wasn't amazing but, it was cheap! I'm sure it will work just fine and offer me loads of visual satisfaction!
I didn't buy mine from Klumzee, I bought mine from eBay. I just talked to the painters and they said they've prepped and painted it TWICE and both times when they baked it, silicone based oils are coming up and fish eyeing the paint! So he said they're not going to bake it, just let it sit over night and I should be able to pick it up in the morning.... DAMN this is annoying! I went out and started cleaning my car in anticipation for pictures when he called... oh well, got some pictures of my new headlights instead haha.
Since I'll be working during all the daylight hours until Saturday afternoon, I won't have any new pics up until then. I still gotta go have the stupid locks taken off my damn lug nuts so I can paint my wheels haha.

You mean LR with the front lip in black? Yeah I kinda liked it too! But I figured it would look better painted.... dropped it off this morning, should be done tomorrow. I'm excited! I also have a JL 10w6 coming via UPS! Yesterday I painted my headlights black and modded the turn signal lens... Perhaps I'll rub her down and take some pictures 
I just installed mine (with the last little bit of daylight) and MAN it looks hot! I will try to get some pictures tomorrow when there's some light out. I had the lip sitting in my car all day while I was at work (picked it up and went straight to work) and the heat inside my car (it was like 83 or something today) caused it to warp a little. So there's a gap on one side which I'm sure will go away with a little bit of time as the plastic forms to the bumper again. That brand new paint is BEAUTIFUL... I only wish my whole car was that shiny, good gawdamn haha. My car is finally coming along!!
I say this, about my car coming along... I bought it 2 months ago yesterday!! I'm such a fiend.

Is it polyurethane? If so I think I remember a board member saying carbon fiber + polyurethane = no no.
Initially I had it blacked but it was catching too much attention so I got it painted and made it blend in more. But nice looking ride with the lip.
Yeah I think leaving the lip black did in a way look cool, but it didn't totally work. If you had black side skirts it would probably look fine, you'd also probably have to add some black to the lower part of the rear bumper too.
I'm not working today so I'll go wash mine some and take a few pictures
