    Front lip spoiler?

    I drove from Ohio to Virginia yesterday with a bunch of stuff in the back, and with the rear end weighed down, a bit more air was getting under the car, which caused pretty severe front end lift at 70+. So, I'm thinking of adding an air dam or lip spoiler/splitter to keep the air from going under the car to reduce lift. I've seen a few around from global markets, but not sure where to buy them. I'm thinking maybe one like these?

    Thailand is the major place making the bodykits.
    Also have a few Philippine makers: Clifford bodykits, Shark accessories.

    Not sure on the Thai ones but I stalk the Thai mirage club and eco club on facebook and they all run insane looking bodykits.

    Most do, just the tricky part of translating or finding someone who speaks either English or Thai/Tagalog.

    I am interested in getting the evo front bumper and evo carbon bonnet they have made for our car.
    Would cost around $1200 without postage to me.

    That's beautiful. Agh, so much saving to be done! I'm thinking of applying a DIY lip in the meanwhile, one of those garage door rubber-types held on with 3M tape. I'll have to post pics if/when it goes on.

    I'd do that to mine, since I've got plenty of DIY aero experience with my last two cars, but I actually want to do this one right this time around. That Evo front end is gorgeous, but I don't want to mess with the OEM aero TOO much and add more drag than necessary to tame the front end lift.
