Default Front bumper ground effects

I'm sorry first off because I'm not sure exactly of the name of this piece. I can only explain it. Its a add on piece that you can add to the front bumper that sorta hides the air dam. I was wondering if anybody had a TA with one of these and have a lowered car. I think they look awesome on the TA's. Also, how low their car was, current setup, springs shocks, struts and any pictures. Thanks

The wings west type exactly. The ones I've seen are a little different though. I really like how they look. My main question is how they do when the car is lowered. Do they scrape a lot?

I just got ww front lip put on, car is on sportlines. I've had no issues with scraping, but you do have to be careful with making sure you take entrances with a dip at an angle....I'll try to get a pic up shortly

some people like it, some don't. personally, I think it really levels out the bottom lines of the car all the way around. I took the side moldings off also, which helps the appearance as well, imo.
