has anyone here tried this front lip or know how it fits?
no ebay links

 

i dont think anyone has tried them.

i was considering buying the back pieces to try to mod my oem bumper on the cheap to look like the JIC rx8. but then my transmission blew. and then i have huge bills. haha. sometime in the future....

 

i was gonna try it, they are local to socal so you can go check em out see how fitment would be

 

 

omg atilla bad images

 

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]

 

yes socal roads suck especially the valley and the inland empire damn oc guys are lucky

 

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 ****.

 

hell yea, i hate the valley roads!

i mean the pot holes arent that bad, but its the dips in the roads [most intersections] that are a killer!

 

suprisingly atilla tilt told me to get this lol but i want the shine kit

 

i tried it.

worst mistake

cost me 70 bucks to ship back.

never bought body parts from ebay again

/thread

 

really?

what exactly was wrong with it?

 

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.

 

Attila that pic made me lawl so hard.

 

this exact product was already covered,,,,
Except in thier new add the lip looks even worse with that horrible buldge in the middle,,,

Serach people, and dont telll me ,,, "eehh waaaa nooo I already searched",..... well I did and it took about 30 seconds,,,

 

haha oh damn.. i remember that thread

 

The evoR lip looks way better.

 

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,,,

 

ahahaha NOBODY BUY THESE!!!! GREG COULDNT GET THEM TO FIT. YOU OBVIOUSLY WILL NOT EVEN COME CLOSE!! haha what a failure. i wonder how much bad feedback it would take to get these products off ebay.

 

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...

 

yup it looked good too at first but i decided to wait and get something gaurenteed

 

Shine would be the way to go for this, if not the authentic piece!

 

how much is it for the rear?
