UPDATED!! new -89 RETRO-SPEC front lip with pictures.

[C7carbon]

here are the pictures of our new lip, we wanted to make something close to OEM with a little more character, it looks good without after-market side skirts since it doesn't go as low as other lips out there.
2 piece design will make for affordable shipping, if there is enough interest we will run a group buy on it.
CF will be available, please dont mind the rough paint we will paint it someday :biglaugh: let me know what you think!

i like it. except for the seam in the middle. id like to see one that the seam is hidden better...or non existent

It looks good, however, the 2 piece design, IMO doesn't look right. It looks like a big crack in the middle. I would pay more in shipping for a one piece.

I'd be curious as to what the shipping cost difference actually would be. The seam really does stick out and ruin the whole look but might be worth it if it's a huge cost difference...

Paulo, it looks good but again i dont like the 2 piece design....looks broken. I'd be interested in one though after its made into 1 piece. Any ideas on price?

this is now my first choice for a lip, minus the spit in the middle. I was thinking maybe a body shop could get rid of it though? Any thoughts on that? I am guessing that it is made of FG?

 

[dubsupra209]

yep i like it except for that seem in the middle.....keep up the great work though

 

[Koenigturbo]

Just wondering, isn't the shape alot like the home depot design? Or did I miss something.

 

[SupraOfDoom]

Down for it except middle as well.

 

[Dylan JZ]

looks great except for middle.

 

[xzeror]

i dont like middle

 

[usdm_anon]

id buy it, cept for the middle split

 

[supraguy@aol]

It looks pretty good, but honestly, i'd like to see even a bit more 'character'. It's a bit too close to stock looking.

 

[87M-GTE]

I really like it, but as mension'd... the whole 2-piece thing.

Whats the material made of?
I was thinking, maybe once its installed on the car and in place, you could heat the end of a flat head screw driver and kinda "melt the two pieces together" to blend the seam:naughty:
Maybe? Maybe not.. just a thought

I love the almost stock look of it to BTW!

i would use a LITTLE bondo then sand to perfection and repaint it

the lip will be fiberglass, making it a one piece would be really easy, in fact the pieces go togheter way closer then what the picture shows, we made the lips on a extra bumper i had at the shop, when i put it on the car the bumper had a slighty different shape (since its installed) and it opened out a bit, we filled it just for the pictures.
the 2 piece lip will save the buyer around 75.00 bucks just in shipping alone, since one piece overlaps the other one turning into a one piece is very easy.i would like to keep the lip around 150.00 shipped on a initial group buy.
i will have updated pics plus a one piece in a bit, Thanks.
