Sup bro, definite BOOTY CALL for sure! Rear looks real good! Hey, do you mind giving me the size of those tips as well as the size of our OEM? Been wanting to replace them for awhile now but very concerned about fitment. Thanks bro!

Until you do not have CF hood then there is never enough CF 😂 Sorry for my English, I'm going to get it this way too, but from the other end. Check my gallery of handmade-CF-covered parts here: https://www.instagram.com/p/By0G3DLob4Q

Those tips are 90mm. Same as stock. Thanks for the booty love.

I think carbon splitters bumper with a lip is too much. Diffuser is nice. Air vents nice. Grilles nice. I don't even notice the grilles until someone reminds me. Side skirts fills it out nicely.

iND's website says sold out so I can't even order them.

Did you add the black overlays to cover the white and blue area?
Yeap. Make sure you use windex and a magnifying glass. I know that sounds terrible but it helps with positioning.

Sorry for my confusion but not sure what you mean by "carbon splitters bumper with a lip"? I'll just have a carbon splitter/lip (and cf side skirts and diffuser).

Right now I have all those parts but had them painted body color. My splitter just splitted from a few incidents with steep driveways. haha So now I'm thinking about getting all new body pieces in CF and wondering if I should also switch out the gloss black grills and fender vents with CF pieces to match.

After about 60 dents from the hailstorm I'm back! 3 days of work without painting! Will send some before after later.

I tried to do this with carbon fiber kidneys from aliexpress and they have different housing. So make sure the inner part is the same. I wanted carbon so in the end I had to remove the original chrome kidneys and send them to the local shop and they covered them with carbon fibre.

Splitters for me are the carbon pieces on the side of the bumper. Spoiler is the lower section of bumper.

The pieces on the sides of the bumper are usually known as canards. The lower section is usually called splitters, lower bumper spoilers or lips.

I'm not adding canards and I don't think anyone in their right mind would do so for an SUV. haha

That's the word I was looking for. Someone on here had them on their lip. It looked - odd.
