MStache 2 Ground clearance

DEG · 04-25-2013, 08:36 PM

Greetings,
For those of you that have installed the MStache 2, would mind posting how much ground clearance you have? Please indicate if you are on stock suspension or if on a modded suspension. Thanks!

The problem with most lips isn't the static ground clearance; the maximum angle is decreased when pulling out of gas stations, transiting speed bumps, etc. While it's a little lower, the main issue is that a lip sticks out further.

IIRC, the Mstache 2 is supposed to have a better "ramp angle" (for lack of a better word).

Thanks for the info Pokeybritches. That's why this forum is so great. Your willingness to share your knowledge.

I've been looking all over hell's half acre for a front splitter similar to the "mstache".

Could someone recount the scoop on this splitter? Are they commercially available?

Thanks so much.

Thanks carelessmoker! I have a "curbed" driveway and I'm just trying to figure out if I will have enough clearance for my future mods of the MStache 2 and dropped on coilovers.

I think the ideal solution is going to be something like this thread.

A lip that goes only on the center bar and does not extend to the fangs. This way it would not reduce clearance, have a great angle of attack, and still provide most of the aero benefits. So far no one makes one so I guess it would have to be custom, or cut down an existing lip.
