GFX with no Front Lip

Is it just me or does the GFX look better without a front lip? Especially on the SS which has a different lip anyway.

The GFX lip always seemed to be too sticky outy to me.

I am borrowing other peoples pics, hope you dont mind...

I have the GFX on minus the front lip. I think it looks better and I don't have to mess with any of the "issues" folks have had with the front.

what's that badge on the GFX in the first picture. It looks like some sort of plate riveted on the front.

Good Q. I thought it might be the lighting, but it looks like tape maybe?

I got the pic from here: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...t=24403&page=5

That is the mounting plate that holds the side of the front chin to the bumper cover.

I like it better with no front clip. The front just sticks out too far for me.

I agree and I find it is the only part of the GFX that looks added on. No front lip makes it all look like it was not added on. Very happy with the look of my car:

I cant tell from the pics but if the stock bumper comes as low as the sides then it would nice as well. I prefer to have the lip on but if its not installed great the lip will have a gap. These pics are making me think twice. Looks cool either way.

I was wondering did you guys order your gfx after you picked up your car then? or just sold your front lip after you had it installed from the dealer?
