How is your front lip/splitter holding up?
 
I was thinking of getting a front lip, I currently don't have one. I'm lowered about 1.2" up front & I'm already scraping a good amount if I'm not careful.

If I get a front lip I'll just be scraping more I realize that, but I was just wondering how they hold up? Specifically thinking about getting a forcewerkz v2 front lip.

Either probably do a lip or maybe just plasti-dip the bottom of my bumper because its pretty scrapped up & you can see it from certain angles.

^^^ same. unfortunately after hitting 2 bunnies my bumper and sti lip both cracked. Finally replaces the lip with a replica sti one so we shall see how it hold now.

I have an APR FRS splitter and that shit has been through a lot. I'm lowered on RSR Superdowns approx 1.2-1.4 and I scrape at least once a day lol. Good quality.

With my Nur Spec lit, I've had some incidences of scraping, but nothing major... luckily.

have the grazio frp front lip...holds up just fine and doesn't lower it too much. a bit pricey though but has the 'look' that I'm looking for. A few scraps underneath but no one will see it.

yeah, the STI lip is ABS i believe. some pf the replicas are polyurethane.

My Rep STI lip is scraped up but it's not noticeable from above. It's wrapped in carbon fiber as well and the bottom of it is already chewed up. Ill probably go lower and add a APR front splitter eventually

Yeah looks like polyurethane is the way to go, those STI lips are most definitely ABS plastic if they're breaking like that.

Doesn't even look like they sell the Forcewerkz V2 anymore, looks like I'll have to find a different lip.

STI lip snaps in half under pressure... My first one was gone after hitting a giant piece of semi tires on the hw...>.>
