Not feeling the last lip. Kinda looks like a street sweeper kit.

Anyways clean car. The 1st thing people are going to tell you is to get some clears and to drop it.

I keep my car OEM. The only thing I did was tint and a $60 for some missing plastic in our engine compartment.

if i was you i would not buy any lips off ebay as the fitment is very bad. if ur good with bodywork and have an extra 8-10 hours then go for it save your money and buy a good one that has a known good brand name. i see you got a steal if u found a 04 with low miles.

I have the eBay lip. If you get it, wait around. The seller who I bought it from (out of stock) only charged $68 SHIPPED

Fitment is 95%. There was a lump on the bottom, not visible when mounted, but I used a heat gun and flattened it out for my own satisfaction.

not sure if i was gonna go with ebay. i think i would much rather pay the money for a name brand with great fitment. looking for carbon fiber possib,y. what are the major name brands offered that most people rock on their cars. was gonna get some s-techs to lower it soon. does infiniti offer a stock sport lip or possibly a skyline lip?

Almost all the Data System replica lips come from the same manufacturer, anyway. So you might as well get it from a reputable eBay seller (find out which seller the guy above got his from).

Why Tein springs? =/ Nothing special about them.

I bought mine from SpeedInfiniti: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...#ht_5709wt_939

Honestly, cheap is not always bad. And you can't lose much for $70.

Now if you don't like the lip, I understand. But I feel like it's got a sporty + conservative look.

You can look around for the OEM "chin" lip for a few hundred also, or buy an 06+ sport bumper, which has a fancier lip molded as part of the whole thing.

you are correct that lip does have a sporty look to it and its not huge and unreasonable. i did not know that alot of people were riding with lips off of their and i will have to check it out just to see what is on there. but thanks for all your input

I have the same ebay lip. No problems at all with my fitment. Best $100 I've spent on the car.
