Autokits CF lip fitting complete

First off let me say thank you to both Alex and Dennis at Autokits-X. I had a great experience dealing with these guys. Dennis stepped in after Alex's accident to ensure there's was no break in communication

The lip itself looks fantastic. There are a couple of minor imperfection in weave but nothing alarming. Everything was packed with extra bubble wrap for extra protection.

These are just test fitment pix which is why there's blue painter's tape. Fitment is tight but dead on. Final pix will come after I have the lip molded and color matched with just the bottom left in CF.
All and All, I'm very satisfied
Thanks for looking

I love the lip and color but to be honest, I believe the contrast needs to smoothened out a bit it doesn't match with the lines? It might look better if a little more of the lip was painted IP.. I'd do a quick PS but I don't have the software on my laptop..

Just my 2 fils.. def looks good though

Thanks Sam. I already have plans on color matching and molding the lip. When it's done, only the bottom part of the lip that extends out will remain in CF. It's still winter here so I'll have to wait a bit before I can take it to the shop.

Haha this is exactly what I was thinking you should do when I saw the pic! It will look awesome like that.... will blend well with the mirrors, grille, and headlights!
