I have been trying to decide wether to remove my front lip because it keeps on sagging, and get the dg front lip and add some yellow fogs to my sunlight silver msp. I have been thinking about it alot recently since i have had my car in the shop alot has been going through my mind, honestly i love the look of the msp 03.5 lip i just really want the stock fogs because it looks clean. What do you all think i should do? Leave comments dont hate, i respect everyones judgement
Keep the stock lip. The dg will scrape. Is it sagging because the double sided tape isn't holding. Let us know were its sagging.

yeah if you do want to go through with it you can definitely find someone on here who will trade you their fogs including the switch.
I've had both lips. Even at stock height, the DG lip tends not to clear parking blocks. I couldn't stomach repainting just to have it happen again.

gosh, is funny how people with fogs want the 03.5 lip, and people with the 03.5 lip want fogs....that's why i'm getting fogs and keeping the 03.5
everytime i go into a parking lot i park until the wheels are barely touching the bump....an di always think...."if it was lower, i would've scrapped the shit out of it!"

I may do the same thing, its just the stock kit from what i understand will not fit with the 03.5 lip, and im not trying to go with some aftermarket crap i want a stock clean look if you know what i mean....
am i supposed to throw up a big JDM here?? lol

I say keep the lip. Aren't there brackets you can get so you can have the lip + smaller fogs?

I bet that wouldn't look bad if you just did the lower half of the lip (the part below the line).

Just keep the lip and get those gt3 brakets or whatever they are called to get fogs. You wont have to worry about your lip cracking, or having to be repainted.

I like the stock lip on my 03.5, and I think you need the G3 brackets to put some aftermarket fogs in...PIA makes a set that will fit, unsure of the model number. That is what I want to do eventually...keep the stock lip and add fogs.

that's why you back into places...
I'm determined not to mess mine up. the dg lip looks much better than the 3.5 lip..
I imagine you can secure the 3.5 lip with a screw or some 3m tape...

I sold my lip because I wanted p5 fogs. I so regret it, the lip and the wing go great together.

I vote for the dg lip and fogs. I have the dg on my car and i'm lowered and I rarely scrape it. You just have to remember its on there, and go slow into places that it looks like it could scrape. I think i've scraped mine once, and it was on the bottom so you really can't see it. The dg looks so much better imo, i've had mine parked right beside a stock titanium msp, and mine just looks so much more aggressive.
