I'm lookin for a CF lip to add to my Inven bumper as well, I saw Extreme G's yellow G same setup it looks awesome. He told me the lip he uses is the one Kris79 sells thats made for the Nismo bumpers but it fits Invens as well.

ohhhhhh you're talking about the actual CF addon

I thought you were talking about a CF splitter that clips on underneath the bumper

^^ i don't think he's looking for the splitter, but the bumper that has the cf at the bottom. imo, it looks kinda weird, which is probably why you haven't seen too many people rocking that version of the bumper

I totally forgot you had the cf on yours Steve. On yours it ties in nicely with your black and cf theme. I think on another color like ip or dg the line at which the cf starts would stand out and might make the bumper look shorter/cut off. I probably should have specified in my comment above, but I was referring to the lighter colors (since the unpainted pic looks similar to white/ip).

You've got one of the sickest looking ob coupes around, and I don't think the bumper looks weird on yours, fwiw. Have you decided on the new color yet?

Deftronix your car is disgusting on so many levels dude... disqusting as in good

looks awesome the way you did it, on my car for example it would look off since it's white.

By the way, where did you get your honeycomb mesh for your Inven inlets ? I been lookin for something just like that, have had no luck so far.
And are your wheels 20's ? or 19's ?

Thanks for the feedback guys! It took me a while to track down a source for the mesh. I was determined and didnt want to settle for the regular stuff. Hexagonal perforated steal is the technical name for it and I had to order it through a distributor. I had to buy a pretty big sheet but at least they were nice enough to let me order under the minimum. Once you cut it, its best to have it powder coated to prevent rust. You can always just spray paint it but thats just a band aid. DC, let me know how much you need, I might be able to accommodate you as I have extra....PM kris79 for splitter.. Adon, I will PM you the distributor info.. The wheels are 20's

^ thanks bro.

yea I found some of while googling away, they even powdercoat it gloss black for an extra $10 which is sweet!
how much of this would I need to comfortably do my Inven front by the way ?? how much did you order Deftronix?

now I'm just wondering which size did you pick, there are two different sizes. Here check it out, but I would guess yours is the XXL

the XXL






or the normal size
