Lightbulb ###*** Skyer front lip design POLL #2 ***###

Hey guys,


We made additional progress on the front lip.

I understand that many wanted the fangs covered on this forum.

However, across all platforms (FB, IG, Zpost etc), it's a 50-50.. It's really hard to have a true winner, almost felt like flipping a coin should do.

But with this tight community that we have, I will not just flip a coin and call it a day.. LOL


One comment swayed me though. By covering the fangs, this lip essentially shorten the "FANG" design of the front. The length of the left/right air dam is now shorten.

So I've modified it to not cover the front of fangs but just cupping the bottom of the fangs upward by 2mm. (like the picture)

This really creates a 3D look to this new lip.

Another option is I shave everything to a flat plane and the front of the fangs is fully exposed, just like other Z4M lips out there?

So your opinion/comment is needed before I finalized the design.

Option 1: This looks fine, let's go ahead..

Option 2: No cupping. I prefer just a flat mounting with front of the fangs fully exposed

I hope to wrap this design up quickly and have the production piece to be installed on the Skyer car before the end of Nov.

The whole lip picture & design will be revealed hopefully next week..

If all goes with the plan..

We might do a launch Group Buy in Decemeber..

Thanks in advance for commenting/voting..

Talking We are almost done..

Thank you guys for all the input and comments. We are finalizing this lip design.

We are going to make a production piece and install onto the Skyer car.

Lots of pictures will be taken..

Hopefully, we can get all that done by the end of this month.

Launch Group Buy should happen in Dec.

Let me know if you might be interested in this so I can gauge production slots at the manufacturer side.

cheers..

Jordan

Looking like another Skyer Motorsport hit, can't wait until production begins, it will make the front end of our cars look agressive and stylish!!!
