Sorry, but it's not clear what angle you're looking for. Directly from the back of the part? If so, once the pieces are stuck together, there's no empty space there, except inside the 2 vertical posts in the middle that the bolts go through.

So straight on facing the car as if the car was heading towards you to hit you. And at a low angle. Haha sorry if I'm asking for too much!

Installed. The fit was good and I like it. But, it should have come assembled as one piece.
Note: You can user the OE screws for the 4 outer mounting points, but not the 4 inner because the washers are too wide to fit inside body of the lip. So, you have to use the supplied screws for the 4 inner mounting points.

Agreed. Always seemed like there was something missing. The lip seems to complete/finish it.
Now, I just need to be really careful everywhere, because it is pretty low and sticks out. It dramatically reduces the approach angle.

Do you have any other suspension mods? I just installed mine and I'm getting Dinan springs installed end of this week so bye bye to my clearance lol

Nope. OE suspension. So far, so good on all the dips I've encountered so far...

Well, I knew it was only a matter of time. I christened the bottom of my lip backing into my neighbors driveway.
I guess the dip on their driveway is a little deeper than mine.
Fortunately, you can't see the scrapes unless you look under the lip, but I know they're there.
