Carbon Front Lip For Mitsubishi Evo 8

For the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII (Evo 8), a carbon front lip can significantly enhance both the car’s aesthetics and aerodynamics. Here’s an overview of the features and specifications typically associated with a carbon front lip designed for the Evo 8:

Features:

• Material: Constructed from premium carbon fiber, which is known for its lightweight, high strength, and distinctive appearance. This material offers durability and a high-tech look that complements the Evo 8’s sporty design.
• Design: Specifically engineered to fit the contours of the Evo 8’s front bumper. It usually aims to improve aerodynamics by reducing drag and increasing downforce, which can enhance vehicle stability and handling at high speeds.
• Appearance: Carbon front lips typically come with a glossy or matte finish that highlights the carbon fiber weave. Some might offer a clear coat to protect the finish and enhance its look.
• Installation: Designed for a direct fit onto the Evo 8’s front bumper using existing mounting points. Most carbon front lips come with necessary hardware and detailed installation instructions, though professional installation is recommended to ensure proper fitment.
• Weight: Generally lighter than the stock front lip, contributing to a reduction in overall vehicle weight. This can improve performance and handling characteristics.
• Durability: Carbon fiber is highly resistant to damage from road debris and environmental factors. It is also less prone to cracking and fading compared to traditional materials.

Specifications:

• Compatibility: Tailored specifically for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII (2003-2005). Ensure that the front lip is designed for the Evo 8 to guarantee a proper fit.
• Dimensions: Custom-made to match the dimensions of the Evo 8’s front bumper. The dimensions should align closely with the factory design to ensure an accurate fit.
• Finish Options: Available in various finishes, including high gloss, matte, and clear-coated. The finish not only affects the visual appeal but also contributes to the lip’s protection against UV rays and environmental wear.
• Weight: Typically lighter than the OEM front lip. Exact weight can vary based on design and manufacturer, but you can expect a reduction in weight compared to factory components.
• Mounting Points: Designed to utilize the factory mounting points for ease of installation. Some front lips might require additional adhesive or hardware for secure attachment.
• Surface Treatment: Often treated with a UV-resistant coating to prevent yellowing and maintain the carbon fiber’s appearance over time.

A strong, lightweight spoiler from one of our global partners.  Made using our specific process requirements based around our Resin Plastics System (RPS)

While these parts can look similar to others on the market, there is a distinguishable difference in strength, quality, finish and fitment.  No varnish, gel coat, or "UV Inhibitors" nonsense.  While this is made outside of our shop, we always QC each unit and apply our own Urethane High Solids Clear Coat in our world class paint booth. 

You have heard the horror stories of carbon parts that look great for a few months then slowly degrade.  NRD Blue use all new materials and a real legitimate H/S Clear Coat!

You visible see the difference and feel the slick nature of Urethane finishing.
