Splitters vs lip- thoughts?

Considering adding RKP CF splitters to my SBM.

Leaning toward splitters as they retain (amplify) the 'fangs' instead of rounding out the front end like the RKP lip.

Haven't seen any good shots of these on a SBM car though.

Thoughts?

No problem. Make sure you get rkp as they will fit perfectly.
Goodluck.

Both the lip & splitters look great on the car. I personally went with splitters.

Wish I was dropped... although I didn't change size much, I think the PZero's fill the gap more. 265 in the front and 305 in the rear.

that Color i believe it accents more of the splitters than MCB imo,
it. and YEs the Pzero are more Rounder and it will fill the gap a bit.
love the color 13M5F10

Since you have Black, maybe someone can photo chop the splitters. ( i couldn't find any blk f10's with splitter)

I think full lip would look good in blk.

I agree - Full lip on black... looks so much better than the splitter.

Splitter on MCB I think looks great if you go with the whole CF theme
