yeah i messaged them but response from them yet.

i was originally looking for the rears only and was going to get the ms front, but this is much cheaper and the roads in my area are ****, so i dont think the ms front would be a good investment since i still want to drop the car just a bit. [i already scrape on some streets on stock ride height]

ok seriously guys...

don't buy that ****.

Look at the picture....i mean SERIOUSLY LOOK AT IT. Do you think it'll be able to sustain road debris at 60+ mph? and do you think it'll actually sustain against warping/sagging? i mean ****....it looks like it's sagging IN THE PICTURE!!

come on guys. Avoid this ****.

if you want the authentic lip from Burnout. Go and check it on japanparts.com or something. That or if you want replica because of the price - hit up Ken at shine autoproject. They're local to socal - they made my front lip and mike you've seen it before - it's legit.

let's not completely rice our **** out here. P.s. Those rear fairings were brought up in another thread and the OP got flammed to ****.

fitment was terrible, far starters.. i thought "it's just a front lip, how bad could it be", it was bad enough for me to not even try anymore. I'm sure you get a professional to fit it and paint it, it'll look aite.. but why spend the money on it when you can just get a nicer lip (eg. LEG or Rmagic or evoR)

see heres the question... how terrible was it? i mean if it is urethane couldnt you bolt it on and some 3m tape to make it fit?

because i cant see the justification in spending more money on a more expensive lip if im probably going to mess it up somehow on the roads in my area.

but my car looks weird without a lip or a new front bumper because i have the ms sides.

wow that looks bad. seems like buying the rears is less of a risk tho. easier to make fit i would think. still probably not a good investment

Nope not at all, 05Rex had those rears and sent them to me for free, I couldn't get them to work either, I tossed them in the dumpster, completely worthless,,,

I said you can get $90 PU lip picked up :-D

I was thinking about getting it for the meantime but said screw it.

Looks like its a good thing I decided against! Good thread, it's got useful info in it!

edit: Are there really no ebay links allowed whatsoever? If so, that's foolish; we aren't allowed to refer to things being sold on ebay whatsoever? I can agree with no ebay links for solicitation purposes but clearly he isn't trying to sell a product here, lol...
