the ends tho... look very out of place. i would cut and sand them down so they start to go flush with the fender by the end. then do a little filler work and paint it, and it could look legit i think

Can you measure how tall it is? With as low as I am, I think this would be a good height as opposed to the Stillen/Ionic lips. Around $60 shipped on eBay - worth a shot to try it for that price...

Well it came in a day early. Test fit it on, and I'm happy with how it sits. No trimming was needed. Came with mounting hardware. For $66 shipped its better than almost $300 for a Duraflex lip.

Ive got it in the garage now with paint drying. (Color matched DP0) Only problem I see is I might have to raise my car up now. I'm 2.25 inches off the ground at the front. I'll post up some better pics tomorrow when lighting is better. Oh, and its just the angle of the pics, but the lip goes all the way to the wheel arches.

How tall is the lip? I am considering it, but concerned because I'm pretty low already.

Doesnt seem to flow as well on the I30, and it also looks like its a bit short towards the wheel well and deosnt really line up. Definitely looks a bit out of place on it. The I30 has a pretty good looking front bumper already, to me that lip just hangs down a bit too low.
