Yesterday installed the Evo-R carbon fiber front lip. And I must say this lip is awsome. Def. worth the $. Great fitment, easy to install. Could have used instructions in english as reference thou. But over all great product, great look. Love it.
Here's some pics.

Looks like the Burnout lip. Pretty nice though. Do you not have any sides on? Just the front?

 

looks great i have the same lip

 

it is the burnou tlip i got from Evo-R. I'm Getting the sides with in the next week i wanted to make sure i liked the cf on the car first

 

OH ok.. my bad.. I thought the lip was called Evo-R.

 

which sides are you looking to get?

 

i wonder, would this lip work with the seibon side skirts?

 

I'm looking at getting the the side skirts from Evo-R, which I believe are the Burn out side skirts. They basically resemble the Seibon cf side skirts. It should look good with gunmetal wheels, cf rear lip spolier, cf gas door, and smoked tail lights and tinted windows, and ofcourse the cf front lip, it all should flow nicely.

 

Evo-R doesn't have sides anymore.

 

I just corrected myself on my other post .lol I got the sites wrong, I meant the Seibon cf side skirts

 

don't get seibon cf sides,
just go with overlay on ms sides,
will look a lot better.

 

wadda mean the overlay, the little aero sides??

 

no, he means the mazdaspeed sides. i just ordered one of those lips too.

 

Looks good. Install should be very easy.

 

was it easy to install?
need any out of the ordianry tools?

 

yes

nope. just some double sided tape. then the ends screw into the fender well.

here's a pic of mine

 

cant u use auto glue too?
thanks... im thinkin about buying this lip...

if anybody knows where to buy another one for alittle cheaper let me know
thanks ....

 

yes, you could probably use that too, but it will be more "permanent." that is the best price you are gonna get something like that. if you want cheaper parts maybe you shoulda got a civic or something.

 

Is there really anyone out there selling an overlay for the grey stripe on the MS sideskirts?

 

ahah civic aha
naaa let me rephrase this.
is this a good price for a cf lip?

 

yes. fits perfect and super fast shipment too. i had mine clear coated with 4 coats of urethane clearcoat just to be safe.

 

It's a very good price for a carbon fiber lip. The only problem is that EVO-R have a really bad reputation of bad fitment issues with their replicas and products.

 

^^ as he said^^ has anyone ran into any problems with this product. I would like to get one but his rep is 50/50..

 

Hi all, just wondering if it makes ANY differences if my rx8 got the appearance package front lip or not?

It will have no problem sticking on the front with or without the front lip???

THANKS!

 

It does make a difference in terms of the look. But for me, if I were to get the appearance lip, I would get sideskirts as well. The front lip is a little bit lower than the plastic lip. Search the forum. There are plenty of pics.
