Lips

[walti]

Fuck, I don't know how to make a poll. So I had the GV lip and thought it was awesome, but tire shavings on the highway + lowered car = RIP lip. I am considering getting another, and the DG lip is starting to grow on me. I'd love to get the re amemiya, but that shit is money.

So due to my indecisiveness, I am in need of some opinions of which lip is more attractive (k).

Geesh, I dont know which lip to get but I sure wish we had the weather to make my car look like that again.

[chippy]

I really wish I would have gotten a black MS3 now.. lols.

[walti]

haha you guys aren't helping

[GoFast]

i like them both!!

hope that helps lol

[speed3driver]

I got the DG Lip for mine. Just waiting for spring to throw it on

[Wastegate13]

I hate the GV lip so my vote is DG.

[JDMspeed3]

DG lip for sure man. the GV is way too flashy.

[speed3driver]

Yeah i'd say DG is way cleaner lookin. Now you just have to pick between CF and fiberglass.

[SPEEDYHANS]

i say DG C/F

HA that's Andre0121. he's my good friend and lives close by.

i've personally seen this lip and matter fact see it everyday
and also seen the lip you had before and andre's is way better more better looking and its way stronger
gives the car a meaner look!

i say GEt IT!!!

[Moultese]

DG lip for sure. Where do you get this lip from?

[RC08MS3]

lip-less :)

[MM BOOST]

I am getting the DG lip myself along with the nextmod spoiler lip. I so do et!

[hawaii3]

the DG lip makes it look stock with a shadow following it day or night. im gonna order the GV lip.

[paylew]

DG, I think it looks awesome.

[Outlawstar98]

Its hard to say, but I would go with the DG one.

[walti]

I didn't think so much people would vote for DG. But that was the way I was leaning towards as well. What's wrong with the GV?

[walti]

Protege Garage sells it I believe. SU has it as well.

That's what I thought in the beginning too, but the more I see it, the more it grows on me. I guess it's just a matter of being flashy or having subtlety.

Having that said, I think the DG lip will look awesome on black though, just as the GV lip looked when I first put them on.

[Wastegate13]

The GV lip is hideous. I hate that thing with a passion. It adds too much bulk to the front of the car with nothing to balance it out anywhere else.

Haha can't knock you off there, but your opinions seem to differ from several people who own them.

[zoomdoom]

Id like to see the DG lip on a black MS3. Kind of alot of money for a part that could get ripped off or cracked like what happened to you.

[blinduno]

Dg!!!

Which is why its an opinion and not a fact. I may get a DG carbon lip soon. I can't make up my mind.

[speed3driver]

I ordered the DG lip and i've had it on the car.. its sick! There's no question between the two. DG all the way.
I predict we'll see a lot of people with them this summer.

[paylew]

I originally wanted the GV, but after seeing the DG over and over it grew on me and now I want it. I didn't like the DG at all the first time I saw it.

[UHATEIT]

I have the GV lip and have to watch out for those tire treads.

I saw get the Home Depot lip, its flexible and if you hit something it will bend out of the way and come right back :)

You're car is dope

The main problem with the HD lip is that its weather stripping for a house. I did not buy a brand new car to shop at Home Depot or PepBoys for mods.

if his badass gv lip got torn up from the tire tread, it would be much cheaper to get a $10 HD lip on there and if he hits another tread it will bend out of the way, or simply fall off and it's only a $10 loss instead of a $300+loss

[hawaii3]

i still say GV. i saw it in person and it looks great. HD lip... lame

Yeah man the GV is the sweetest lip imo, I would get another one of those if you like the looks of that the best

I'd like to see that as well! I haven't seen it around the forums yet, and I'm on all of them a lot.

I think we'll see a lot more of them as well when the snow ends. Any pics?

That was me as well. I though it was alright in the beginning, but it looked better and better the more I saw it. I wish I'd see it in person though, it would justify my decision a lot better.

Thanks my dude, I think your car is dope as well. I thought about the HD lip, but wastegate makes a great point. I really didn't plan on putting a lip that you can get at a tool store. They don't look half bad for being about 10 bucks though.

wsup bra? where in oahu?

[logik816]

the dg lip reminds me too much of the home depot lip.

if u get the dg lip, i would recommend the carbon fiber dg.

other then that, gv is my pick. we already know wat it looks like on your car. and it looks sick.

[livetoride]

i like the GV, makes the car Look mean. For me aswell its nice to have something a little different than other people. Most people seem to go with the DG.

I think you have that backwards. The red car on page 1 is the only car I've seen with the DG lip installed. Everyone and their mother has that horrid GV replica.

[SHaW]

I like the GV replica lip way more than the DG.

[andre0121]

fuk gv its a piece of shit ive had both. GV jigsaw cut that shit. quality wise cant compare to dg. also i was scared at first on my decision but having both, dg IN PERSON wins it all. Lets just say 5 speeds in my town have the gv lip......yes played out!!

there's not even five speeds in my area, let alone with lip, or ANY modifications haha

I was thinking the same thing.

[Wastegate13]

You guys live in Nowhereville USA. There are 3 white MS3 in my little suburb. Easily 20+ in town.

[daonly1around]

closest speed dealership is almost 2 hours away

[hawaii3]

Kaimuki

[BoostIt]

Although the GV does seem a little played out I love the way it looks! and i will most likely get that one! a lot of people do have it but that says that it cant be that bad :D

Re-Amemiya

Thought I would Stir the pot a little.

[P2K]

I know most people don't like the opening in the middle of the RE-Amemiya, but I think it's a nice lip. Definitely stirring up the pot, lol. I vote RE-Amemiya. It's the one I'm getting.

Next to this (just seen for the first time), that simple splitter has been the nicest thing to go on the front bumper of our cars. All other lips are bulky and disgusting..

This one

[J-Villa]

why did ya'll have to post the amemiya?

Thats the lip I've been looking at. I need to do a body mod. to my car... and it is one of the lower key ones that not many people seem to have.

But for the op... I vote DV. thats my 2nd choice if the amemiya doesnt work out.

[SPEEDYHANS]

the Re-Amemiya is my fev the only thing is super expensive

Low key is another reason why I want it. No one on here has it and it's not because it look terrible like most people claim, I think it's because it's out of most price ranges. It's expensive and JDM which makes it more rarely seen, which I like.

[zoomdoom]

I just ordered the DG carbon fiber lip along with new rims/springs and few other parts. Will post pics when I get it all together 2-3 weeks.

[andre0121]

dude i will throw away my dg in a heart beat for that aremaya..... in love

[turbo 4]

How hard is it to put that lip on?

[judman13]

DG lip fo so!!

[madvillian]

i want that hood, it looks so mean!

[zoomdoom]

Any how to on installing the dg lip i just looked at it and the factory plastic part the hangs down is in the way. The lip didnt come with any instructions. The factory lip/gaurd whatever you call it is like riveted on too WTF(notcool)

[AllLostThings]

I vote for DG or....

I know a lot of people dont' care for it but I love that hood!

[john blutarski]

DG lip looks better IMO... flows better with the lines of the front of the car

[john blutarski]

I know a lot of people dont' care for it but I love that hood!

I love it too! That car is sick! The hood is not too over the top. The scoop is subtle enough to match the stock sleeper look that the MS3 has.

[240ka]

awesomeness

[walti]

The Re Amemiya is definitely pretty. But aside from people who are made of money, who would pay $686.00 (shipping not included) for FRP? And $806.00 for CF?

[chippy]

Walti..i was wondering what the wheels specs was on your car!

on a side note.. someone should make a replica of that RE-Amemiya!

[walti]

18x7.5 +45 offset chippy. They're having a GI thread on the other forum, but not enough people are showing interests.
