I'm looking to get this lip on eBay. Is it dark black or grey? Essentially, I want to know if it'll look fine unpainted on a OB coupe. Thanks

it is bare poly... so it is a dark grey/black. It was hit with some polish to clean it up... Def getting mine painted by ppgfreak... you could rattle can it flat black and it would look fine.

Hmm. I just don't wanna pay more than the lip for the paint...

Another question, assuming I were to remove the lip later on, are the holes noticeable? Or are they below/behind the bumper?

it has 2 screw inside each wheel well... not needed but def holds it in place(could use double sided tape)

The bottom has 4 brackets that rivet to the lip and screw into the bumper(underside cant see) maybe add 2 more and you can go without screws on wheel wells. (you could also make a bracket to hid these screws on the wheel wells.

Lol its as good as a $500 lip from a name brand company. It fits perfect. Its worth getting painted. (prob cost you $100 to paint). But like I said spray paint (adh promoter/plastic primer/spray paint $15) and you got a nice looking painted lip.

Still loving the lip. It held up all winter... Here are some better pics. It is now painted satin black to match my rear diffueser and grill. (yeah I have different wheels for the summer these are my beat down winters/these pics are the day before it got painted.)





*** shot of some diffuser I picked up... not sure what it is got it for free/trade. Told it was a name brand one (didn,t really care).(not me in the pic photoshoot for a friend).

I'm feeling the rims, great choice.

The headlights... Maybe you could go with yellow fogs if you're going for that look, the whole thing being yellow looks pretty weird, but of course it's all about what you like

I have two sets of headlights... I run 6000k hid low beams and 8000k fog/hi beam Bi-Xenon Hid's
3000k (in stock headlights/black insides) bi xenon fog/hi beams.

I hate the stock clear headlights... I wanted my car to look different from every other DG G35 in the area so I tinted my headlights yellow and got the lip/diffuser.

Hell everytime I change my wheels I see this same DG G35 with something similar... it makes me sick!

I really like the look of the yellow headlights... alot of people don't but hey its my car!!!
