Can someone recommend me a front lip for snow?

I am looking to hear some anecdotal evidence on which front lips may be okay in the snow? I think the lower, more aggressive ones are definitely out of the picture as they'll just be snow plows; however, I've seen some really good low profile ones in the past that may work out.

The "lightweight" brand spoiler. You can pave a driveway with it.

My friend has one and it indestructible. I have one on order, been backordered for the f32 for months now though.

Our carbon fiber lips are very durable, check out the performance style one we offer.
Note we offer it in ABS and CF, Carbon fiber is more durable

ABS is your friend man...you can hit it and scape it all you want....the best thing is....it cost just about $100 to replace it if you ever want to ....

dont go with REAL CF because while it may not break...it will cracked

Heres what happened to my car the last time it snowed lol





Its a 2 piece lip and ripped the bottom half out. I think a one piece lip would fare better if it was secured to the bumper well (betalink etc)
