Prodrive!!!

Clean and more understated IMO...but I'm biased towards Prodrive :D

The STi V1 lip is clean also. Doesn't look like you can go wrong with staying or changing. I've always liked them both.
djcttb 02-16-2005 09:05 AM

haha, ya. im baised too. i love my prodrive lip.

but for some reason the stock rear end looks naked w/o a lip. but im thinking it i did an oem rear lip itd throw off the prodrive... which is why im considering something else.

HANK, BUY MY PRODRIVE LIP IF I SELL IT! :disco:

They both look great. I had a hard time choosing between them too, but went with the Prodrive.

I think the Prodrive also reduces front lift more than the STi, so that makes it better.

I'd go with the Prodrive, It reminds me of my Ver.6 lip on my car.

I am biased to my V1 lip :D I like the beefier look to it.

prodrive. not as many people have it and it looks sick. If you were to go with an STI lip i like v2 much more then v1. just my opinion.

Your car reminds me very much of my car (same IC, side skirts, lights, color of wheels, tint, etc.):

While I love the Prodrive lip, it just doesn't seem to have enough meat to it - almost like it isn't there, you know? But I'm bias, too, so what are you going to do? Either way, I thought I'd show you what your car would look like with the v1. (I'm want your hood so bad.)

I'd like to see a Prodrive lip for the wagons.

I don't mind the STi, except that it comes up higher on the side than the side skirt, which looks silly and doesn't keep the lines clean IMHO.

That's the ONE thing that I don't like about it either. I think I'm going V1 eventually but that part bothers me.

I LOVEEE the V1 lip, but the Prodrive is more practical (V1 lip looks like it adds alot to the bottom of the bumper)...and it is alot cleaner/subtle which I like.
MidnightSti05 02-16-2005 11:22 AM

the first picture looks the best, imo



edit: wait what happened to teh accident? :confused:
Golfa 02-16-2005 11:46 AM

both are great, but I prefer the V1, it's a bit more aggressive, and still very clean/understated
MDRex 02-16-2005 11:47 AM

The Prodrive does look like it's almost not there sometimes. That is why I'm thinking about getting a CF splitter, should give it a more aggressive look.

I also like my Prodrive because I almost never scrape it, I have Prodrive springs too.
djcttb 02-16-2005 12:08 PM

what rear would line up with the prodrive lip?
for some reason i think the oem rear would hang too low =\

I would but then I would have to deal with the issues of having two holes from the OEM front lip I have now. I don't think the Prodrive lip would cover them and plus I have a White Subie so then I would have to repaint yours :( ;)
wrxxxrated 02-16-2005 02:52 PM

I'll buy it...tired of my Greddy hitting the ground!!



....I'll take that hood too :D
quentinberg007 02-16-2005 03:00 PM

djcttb, your car looks great as it. The STi grill would look nice, and otherwise, I wouldn't touch it. Very nice. :)

I'll buy Hank's white OEM Lip in a heartbeat! :)
dj73 02-16-2005 06:35 PM

V1 much nicer looking lip, prodrive's to small and people only like it cos it's prodrive !!
darknightohio 02-16-2005 06:37 PM

V1 is nice but I prefer the look of V2 STi lip.

V1 sits on the outside of the bumper and will leave scratches if you ever decide to change lips again. I had the V1, took it off, and now have to repaint the bumper. I scraped it a few times which would move it up the bumper about an inch, but that's all it took to scrape the hell out my bumper. I do like how simple it looks however. I'm saving for the Prodrive.


Edit: I'd like to call dibs on the Prodrive if you get rid of it. ;)
audio1der 02-16-2005 10:28 PM

I love the prodrive lip If you get rid of it i call dibbs
RedlineRacer 02-16-2005 10:50 PM

You better keep on that Prodrive lip. Looks so much cleaner and plus i personally dont like that gap that the v1 has.
RedlineRacer 02-16-2005 10:54 PM

by the way, where did you get that prodrive lip from?? I want one :) One of the nicest ive seen yet.
GoRacerXGo 02-16-2005 10:57 PM

If you're gonna stick to the stock side skirts and rear, go with the prodrive, otherwise the sti lip is sweet!
sandiegowrx 02-16-2005 11:00 PM

wanna sell me the prodrive!?
