Hey guys....it's John from JDP.

I wanted to answer a few questions...but do not want to respond too much since I'm not a vendor on the forum.

I can make this lip in either a 1x1 or 2x2. I would suggest 1x1 since the weave pattern is tighter...more strength. 2x2 looks good but too common. The carbon is 3K.

I'll be borrowing a car from American Honda and will be putting together a prototype next weekend. The design will be very similar to the J's racing. I'll be using my EVO X cf lip as a starting point to shape the lip. Here's a link to my website to get an idea of what the EVO X cf lip looks like.

JDP Engineering :: Home -- "Design & Innovation with Precision"

I'll have jdmsneakerhead provide you with updates.

Thanks again for all the interest...I hope to build something you guys all want.

I am in! Just wish if it can put the hole on the lip like subaru, evo's lips, cause my car need to breath smoothly!

woot! can't wait for this thing to get out...but just wondering, after he comes out with his prototype, and if we don't like it, will he redo it?

I can change minor things on the prototype...but will not redo the entire thing. Feedback from everyone is J's racing style...which pretty much looks very similar in concept to this:

Great...any other comments or suggestions before I start on this? I rather more input so that I can do this right the first time around.

One piece of input, and feel free to disagree if you feel the urge. I think the spoon piece looks much more aggressive with the straight line in the middle and the vertical bits. While I think both look great, I think the spoon version looks like more time was put into the engineering and production. Just a thought. I am not above realizing the difficulty of molding such shapes into a lip, but you asked for input, so you got it.

^i agree with u there. the only thing i have against the spoon lip is with the small fins in the front, i feel that for daily driving purposes and people who have high drive ways, those will end up scrapping and damaging the lip
