Installed My Maxton Design Front Lip
Got my lip installed the other day and as soon as I go to take some shots the skies opened up. I'll take some more at another time. Also have the Maxton Design trunk lid spoiler.

Looks great but in my experience Maxton Design is kind of over priced for what it is. I was expecting a lot more because it seemed like a legit company but the front and rear lips I received were just thin pieces of plastic with no flat bottom. Kind of hard to explain but basically the top of the lip looks great, and usually there would be a flat bottom, but the bottom of the Maxton Design lips are concave and its just one piece of somewhat flimsy 2D plastic. Also don't get me started on the G12 Maxton Design rear spoiler... I ordered some no name front + rear lips and a spoiler on eBay, probably from china, and they actually are a fully 3D moulded lip with flat bottoms. They look and fit great plus are way cheaper. I know most people probably wouldn't see the bottom but that just didn't sit right with me. Also I can't imagine the concavity of the lips would be great for aerodynamics. Anyways, don't mean to rain on your parade, your car looks great! But if anyone else is interested in Maxton Design I would advise against it. They looked like a well established American design company and definitely give that vibe off on their website but I don't think their product matches the vibe they are giving off.

That front tag is bothering me, especially off centered, haha. We have to have it in MD as well, but I just keep it in my trunk.
What other plans do you have? Wheels, lowering, etc? |

Yeah I have it on because I don't need 5 NYPD pointing guns at me over a plate. I don't plan on lowering it at the moment the roads are unforgiving here. So far parts I'm waiting on
VRSF Chargepipe and BOV Dinan Carbon Fiber CAi Turner Motorsports Exhaust Tips Carbon Fiber LED Steering Wheel I have 10MM spacers but I don't think I'm going to install them, I think I'm going to get wider tires instead. I haven't decided on which tune yet. |

My carbon fiber RPM LED Steering Wheel finally came in. They forgot to add the paddle shifters so they are sending another wheel with those attached.

Not knocking it all, but I feel like it doesn't go with the car. Maybe I'm thinking more on the lines of it's a luxury and somewhat sporty car, but the steering wheel, to me, takes away from the interior a little? Maybe it looks different in person.
