jerry3167 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Hi CS, 1st dibs!! Does it come with a fitting kit ie instructions etc? Cheers Jerry Quote
ab350z Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Folks, for reference, I have this lip on my car, it sits nice and low and was very easy to fit. [attachment=1]DSC00006.jpg[/attachment] [attachment=0]DSCF0019.jpg[/attachment] Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 Hi CS, 1st dibs!! Does it come with a fitting kit ie instructions etc? Cheers Jerry Hi Jerry, its best to be attached using something like Tiger seal… Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 ab350z, thanks so much for adding your photos, much appreciated... Quote
jerry3167 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Hi CS, 1st dibs!! Does it come with a fitting kit ie instructions etc? Cheers Jerry Hi Jerry, its best to be attached using something like Tiger seal… Whats Tiger seal, a glue? Not a bolt on then.. Thanks ab350z FOR PICS! Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 Hi Jerry, tiger seal if you want it there for good with a water tight finish, or you can attach it with screws, which are supplied… Quote
jerry3167 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Cheers CS, Was just thinking if I need to remove the Lip for a reason, would the seal be a hassle.. Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Jerry, I had a veilside one one mine and it was held on with double sided tape and the 4 bolts (2 each side) Tape was on the centre section. Had no issues! as long as the fit is good and if CS says it is then it probably is but the veilside one wasnt a good fit on mine but a great fit on the guy who had it after me!! Go figuer!! Tiger Seal is a bit more permanant! Quote
hotrain69 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Varis CF lips are hold on with 4 bolts and screws and some tape! lips add so much to the front end, i love them. but the only problem is it will scrape everywhere, cant seem to get out of a drive without scraping the front bottom end anymore. also had my little accident scraping the side but that's another story. will hopefully start having a go at repairing it tonight in fact.

austin350z Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 that looks the biz how many do you have? do you still have any ?? Quote

jerry3167 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 After careful consideration, I dont think it would be wise for me to have the Lip as much as I want it, as quite rightly pointed out, it will catch/scrape alot, especially in Croydon with speed bumps galore. Thanks to CS for answering my queries. Jerry Quote
hotrain69 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 ah sorry for spoiling your decision matey, i dont regret mine though, just think it'll be hard work to keep it in one piece! painful cos it cost so damn much!!! Quote

Jerry It depends tbh if the car is lowered or not. I have the Varis Carbon Lip and have yet to have any issues with speedbumps. Mind you, my car is not lowered. Quote
hotrain69 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 mine isnt lowered either, and to be honest, speed bumps are generally ok, but i find driveways a nightmare, might just be where i'm from, but they dip quite sharply and i can just hear the apinful sounds of the front bottom edge scraping everytime Quote
BulletMagnet Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Hmm, do you reverse onto the street from your drive or the head first? I found that going head on from my drive to the street is bad, because the nose gets crazy close to the ground, even had the front bumper scrape when I didn't have the lip on. No such probs reversing out of the drive tho. Quote

BulletMagnet Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 i dunno, some drives i can do head out, but some i cant. find it really difficult to tell! and it's really really annoying!! Just make it a rule to drive head in to drives and reverse out of them into the street. It's because the bodyline on the rear is more favourable for steepish driveway entrances. Weather permitting, I'll post some pics tomorrow (if I scuff my Varis lip, I'll blame you!!!) Quote

Jerry Mat mine was a good inch lower than yours and didnt have an issue round those parts..... on the worse bits there may be a scrape under the spoiler that you cant see, and to be honest, your y-pipe will scrape more than then spoilers!

Weather permitting, I'll post some pics tomorrow (if I scuff my Varis lip, I'll blame you!!!) i'm personally amazed that you havne't scuffed the lip yet. am very impressed and hope that you keep it that way! i had mine for a week and it's so painful to see. to be honest, all the driveways i had problems with, i had the problem without the varis lip even when stock so i think i had no chance.
