The carbon lip is a wrap I presume? How well does that hold up to say, 20k miles of driving?

Hey all thanks for the replies, here are some answers to the questions:

Without going into to much detail the lip is just a finish, its also throughout the lip so you see no seams and when the tire is off you can see the finish all the way to the back edge of the front lip. However like any finished lip (paint/powder) it is vulnerable to standard wear and tear.

As you may or may not know we are known for our finishing options. Many people asked us when we were going to do carbon wheels so we did this as an option for those who want a carbon look but dont need/want to spend 10k.

Prior to releasing the finish I had been daily driving them in so cal and also made a round trip to the bay area and back (800mi) which included driving in San Francisco where the roads are horrible!

So far the finish has held up to my liking, I do actually drive the car like its meant as I have chip pulley and some other go fast mods, so I dont baby it because of the lip finish.



Thanks!

Manu
