v0ranma0v Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Does anyone have any experience of having a front lip or after market front bumper? I want to know if there is any problem on going up on steep driveways and crossing speed bumps after either of those is fitted.And which one will give more ground clearance? As far as i concern, both of them seem to lower the car quite a lot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumping350 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 depends on where you live i guess im in london and ended up taking off my greddy gracer front lip as too many high speed bumps and gradients in car parks was a nightmare aswell leaving steep driveways but if it generally flat and low speed bumps then your ok id say an aftermarket bumper would give more clearance as my N1 bumper sits slightly higher than the lip.but all depends what bumper and lip your looking at really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 All depends really. Some front lips/bumpers do have a lower line, some don't . Also depends more on whether the car is lowered or not and how steep a driveway is. Mine is slightly lowered with an added front lip, but have no issues with speed bumps per se. I tend to worry more about my side skirts catching than my front lip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Most aftermarket frot noses drop the frot by about 5-10mm. although some don't lower at all. Lips are about the same. *shamless plug* - I have a Amuse front nose for sale. Check my post in for sale section if interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
