AUTOcoture to the rescue!

Space Ghost · 08-02-2011, 11:45 AM

I ordered the ARKYM Motorsport lip/splitter from PYSPEED only to find that the install was somewhat more complicated than I had thought. Since I was already scheduled for a visit to AUTOcoture for some other items I asked them if they would take this install on.

They ended up using the self tapping screws across the front of the lip screwing them in from behind the bumper along with a healthy amount of two sided tape. Additionally, they reused the stock wire cable hangers and 6 bolts in the fender liners. That things on solid. I'm holding off on installing the ducts for now (until have a upcoming track day) but, I think it looks great and while I don't own a wind tunnel I can feel the extra down force created by this.

Thanks to the guys at AUTOcoture for always going the extra distance!

Sorry for the crappy phone pics but, I cant find my camera cable.

Any problems with scraping things?

Space Ghost · 08-26-2011, 12:57 PM

Nope. I've been very careful. 45 degree angle on every rise in the pavement, picking my way to and from places. I'm fortunate though that its not my only vehicle so, I don't DD it.
