Finishes off the RB front end nicely. Recommend to all who dislike the front of there pre FL H6's. Love mine now :D

You can get 3.0L-specific genuine lips too :wink:

I've been thinking about a lip for ages but I just don't think they look as good on the 3.0R bumper due to... something. Not as aesthetically pleasing as on other models.

Mmm I think that's it. And the very uniform shape of the bumper curves. I think the lips look better on the models which have a slight flare to the lower bumper section.

Agreed, IMO I rate the 3.0L bar behind the JDM Spec B bar for that very reason! I think dark colours help hide the lines wayyy better though, which is why I quite like the look of mine with a lip :mrgreen:

Yeah that's what I've been trying to convince myself of also as mine is black too.

If it helps, I didn't think that the lip would do too much at the time when I got it, but now I've had it on the car for a while, I can't stand looking at any lib front bar without one! Just looks incomplete :P
