It is more subtle than the amuse s2000 front lip. Anyone make something like this for the rx8?

If you are talking about the splitter, Yes, search the internet.

I searched and did not come up with anything that looks like that. Most of the splitter are thin add ons for under the front bumper on front spoiler. If you know of someone that ones one like the picture posted, then please post a link or picture.

That is not what I am looking for. Check the original picture again. It is difficult to tell if it is a front lip or corner pieces.

Here is a picture of the Amuse front lip. I like the lip on the boxter better but here you can see what I'm looking for.

it would look almost like the bottom of an autobahn front.

Similar.

Hard to tell if the Boxer is corner pieces or a front like like the Amuse lip.

Looks like it's only on the corner of the Boxster.

I know what you mean about the Amuse lip for the S. I've always liked it for the AP1s. I don't know if it would look good on a stock bumper. Put something like that on an MS bumper, now we're talking.

RE Amemiya makes something similar but not as subtle as what is on the boxter (two separate pieces on the corners). In these pics they aren't painted, but I believe if you search through the "Super Autobacs" thread there are some pics of them painted.

Oh, and they make this too:

Aipex8,

Thanks but that is way too bulky for my taste. I really want a subtle lip or corner pieces.
