Default rare lip?

browsing around and found this car. looks to be an OEM lip with an extention molding (fiberglass, not bondo, i'm assuming)

or it just the rarest lip of all time? hahah.

i'm mainly interested because i want to have my go at a custom AP1 lip of a similar nature.

wow, all three of you can't see what I see?

unless the shadows are playing a mean trick on my eyes,
it's clearly not a regular ap1 lip, unless it has some serious bad application or warpage.

look at how it starts extending right from the mold lines, and sort of sticks our further. makes it more agressive yet still very clean.

wisdom, i can only find downforce lips for ap2 and they don't look like this.

i did notice that but i think its just the picture playing with your eyes...also i think the CF makes it stand out a little more...making it look like its molded out further than the OEM

hmmm... i think i just answered my own riddle. hahah.



upon further review: those shadows are wayyy to similar from both angles it's uncanny. optical illusion to my eyes.

hmm.... at any rate, it still gives me some ideas.

thanks all.
