best lip for scion frs?
Was wondering which lip most members choose for the Scion FRS?
Did you choose it for function or looks? http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/mm...Code=FR_S-AERO

I'm really interested in the APR Performance Lip Kit and want to know if any members here have installed it and if so, what are their thoughts?
This is my next purchase so I'm interested in this thread as well.

The hard part about buying a lip for performance benefit, is that there is no actual data out there showing any additional downforce with any of the options available. That being said as far as what looks to be the most effective for down force would be the APR adjustable front splitter. If you mounted it with small spacers on the back mounts I could see it having some real aerodynamic down force. If mounted with stock hard ware all you are making is a nice CF air dam which just makes the car less aerodynamic. Lip kits seem to be a purely cosmetic addition, some might inadvertantly create downforce, but until there's evidence supported by data, I say go with what looks good to you!

What is your favorite color and why?
That's what I read as the title to this thread.

ChargeSpeed bottom line kit is the other one I've been considering next to the APR. I like the look of the APR a little more but I'd like to see some installed pics of other forum users cars.
After the recent Seibon threads and posts I think we all agree that even when a part looks awesome on paper and in pictures on company website there can always be fitment issues that may or may not be able to fix at the time of installation. I'm hoping that APR and ChargeSpeed have much better results!!

I'm debating between Password JDMs front splitter, side skirts, and rear diffuser all together or the five axis body kit. I'm torn between the two! Both come out to be $2,000 roughly. Opinions?
