2010 with Duraflex front lip installed and painted. Painted lowers and grille bars blacked out. Badges replaced with black background Billetbadges.

I like that you painted your lower cladding. My only worry on your "Snow Plow" (LOL) spoiler is that it may hit or drag when going in and out of drives etc.

I have had several cars with factory front spoilers that were nowhere near as low as yours and I hooked everyone on a parking lot curb stop. Cosmetic damage to spoiler and lots of damage to my wallet...

Good luck with it though... It should help Aero & therefore mileage, by keeping less air from going under the front.

It's the same height as the factory air deflector, but more out front. I had a lowered VW with a front lip, so I'm used to avoiding curbs!

Ya, I back in to most parking lots. Do not trust myself. Plus easier to get out.

The single colour looks nice. The front plow, takes a little getting use to.

Looks awesome! I'm too afraid of putting the front spoiler on mine. Maybe not so much on a stock height SHO, but an H&R lowered SHO may pose a different story.

I was the 3rd one (that I am aware of) to have installed the lower front chin spoiler.

Rick Bottom (RB Designs) pioneered the mod, and it was seen on his 2010 "SHOx" that made it's rounds in SEMA back in the day.

The vendor created it for him also installed one for their company website (coincidentally it was also on a Silver colored SHO) and then there was me.....

Still dig'n it, and get lots of compliments on it. :thumb:

I am hoping to get my lower side skirts, and rear valance painted up to match it, hopefully this Summer sometime (if funds permit).

Out of curiousity, how much did it run you to do those portions alone, and did you install any type of Clear Bra Material to protect 'em from rock chips/dings?

I had a lot of stuff done at the same time. Approximatley $650 for the lowers minus the front lip. Thats remove, prep, paint, and reinstall.
I have not put anything but Zainos on the front yet. Been on travel since I got it back.
