A front lip, also known as a front splitter or bumper lip, is an aerodynamic accessory mounted to the bottom edge of your Challenger’s front bumper. It’s designed to:
Enhance downforce
Reduce air drag
Add an aggressive, custom look
Let’s be real — looks matter. A front lip instantly makes your Challenger look lower, wider, and more aggressive.
By increasing front-end downforce, a lip splitter improves traction and cornering stability at high speeds.
Directs airflow under and around the vehicle, which can reduce turbulence and improve overall performance and fuel economy.
It also helps deflect road debris, offering some protection for your lower front bumper.
