I have that lip. I couldn't get it to fit well on mine unfortunately. I am no expert at body work however. Was good for a little bit but the double sided tape gave out and the edge of it came off from the bumper and have a big gap there now. I will be ditching it and getting an oem ap2 lip this spring.

megan racing street ez coilovers are awesome!
1 is worst.. 10 is best
ride quality= 6. for now until i find out the problem with the vibration under hard acceleration. alignment, loose bolt, need drive shaft spacers maybe? if there were no vibrations as described then i give it a 9. i appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this issue.
performance= 8.5. since ppl swear there are tons of better options to choose from. i'm giving this a decent score which is 8.5. but honestly to me, these are perfect especially if your not going to track them. i did some really fast speed corning in some areas where i knew the oem ones would give some body roll. megan's just barely had a body roll, not even that noticeable if not paying attention to it, but it is very noticeable when comparing to stock. under dead dig roll, there was a slight vibration as mentioned above under hard acceleration. but i noticed a better take off since the rear end did not sag a lot like stock, and i do mean A LOT. 30mph roll is pretty much the same thing as dead dig roll.
looks= 8. pretty standard stuff but it does look 8x better than oem.
price= 10. can't beat it since it was new.
adjusting damper= 10. very easy. 15 settings and the knobs are very easy to reach.
adjusting height= 6. low scoring since it is a pita. you need muscles for these. it's not like an electronic kind where you just push a button. lol
well i guess that's pretty much it. to sum it all up, i would say these are the best bang for the buck when looking to lower your car especially if you're not into track and want a noticeable difference from stock.
note: don't get me wrong, i was going to get godspeed's but there weren't enough reviews on em for the s2k. if ppl here are right bout megan and godspeed having their coilovers made in the same place, then i guess godspeed wouldn't be a bad choice. just my .02

Id almost be willing to do this for anyone wanting an Oem lip, Give me you request and I can get the lip desired for you at the best cost possible direct from the dealer. Im not sure how many I'll be able to get before they dont let me buy anymore but its worth a shot. Send pm

ugh.
just noticed today the clear coat i put on my lip is spotting after a few days of rain..
sanded it down some more and ordered yet another can of paint.
ive sunk too much in to it at this point to just say f@#k it. lol
thats a total of $90 so far in base paint alone.
i should have just freakin had it professionally painted.
if it messes up again, im just gonna go oem.

Cost me 280 to have the front lip painted and installed and the rear spoiler painted in installed, also fixing a small crack in the front bumper from road debris.

Alrighty purhased a baysonr lip, and the fitment is well i think spot on! I also purchasd a carbon fiber cooling plate from this guy on ebay (aphase-auto) for $161.00 overall the quality is great and the carbon looks flawless
shitty iphone pics

those are pwjdm radiator stays.
i think you can get a pair for like $30
i was thinking about getting some. they are pretty.
its just not a priority.
btw, did you have any problems shutting the hood after you installed the cooling plate?
ive heard some good and some bad so ive been holding off on buying one.
that was like the first thing i ever saw for the S that i wanted.

I just ordered mine. I had painted my stock ones red as they were getting aged. They look amazing but always chip because of my cold air intake and I have to repaint them. I finally broke down and bought a pair for $30.
I also bought my LED map lights on EBAY from these guys. http://www.evperformancetuning.com/products.html
They just got their own website and sell them their now.
