Pics of M5 lowered with front lip?

Jackson1019 · 05-15-2015, 09:53 AM

Does anyone have any pics of their M5 Lowered on H&R springs with a front lip?

Just bought H&R springs and have a front lip on the way. Just wanting to get a good idea of how much clearance I'm going to have in the front.

Thanks Fellas,
Anthony

Hi Jackson

I've just had mine installed a few days ago, I'll get a pic for you in a few but I don't have a front lip.
Since the drop, I have to go over speed bumps I used to be able to go over REALLY slow. So slow infact cars over take me giving me a 'WTF you doing' look!

Pics but no front lip.

Check out FlyGuys thread on his skid plates for the front bumper. Its a no brainer, there needed!

Almost forgot, I have 15mm spacer on the front and 12mm on the back. Recommended by www.ca-int.co.uk, great service from Roy

It has the RKP front lip and is lowered on Hartge springs (same lowering as H&R)

Thanks for all the pictures guys. Looks like I will still have some decent ground clearance.

I'm already use to taking it slow over speed bumps and inclined driveways so shouldn't be a problem.

Which lip did you go with?

Went with this lip:

It was either that or an RKP rep.

Decided I wanted something a little bit more aggressive than the RKP lip.

Looks nice! Is it a 1x1 or 2x2 weave?

How much does this cost after shipping it to the USA? I live in Texas just like you. I am always concerned about additional import taxes. Not sure how to calculate

I clicked on the splitter & its 150 shipping + 550 = 700.00. I thought their are additional import fees when shipping out of China?

Most sites have the below message:
Customer is responsible for paying any local Customs taxes. We ONLY charge price + shipping cost, excluding any additional fees and we won't be responsible for any customs issues.

I have a buddy that has already received his parts and he said no additional customs fees.

What it says on the site is what you will pay.

Please let me know your thoughts, if you like it I am buying a different splitter from the same vendor

VR000M5 · 05-23-2015, 07:28 PM

yah!! curious to know about fitment and quality!

Going to look nice ant! I need something for the front also so that may be the ticket. I don't like rear diff but front is a plus. Let us know the shipping time frame.
