Evo Front Lip

Hi all,

I'm looking for a polyurethane front lip that's of a good quality with no fitment issues for my Evo IX.

I don't want the RalliArt type that has just the protrusions/splitters on the 2 sides, & a recess in the centre. I'm looking for one that protrudes all the way, sides & centre.

Where can I urgently find one of these.

I quite like the Voltex Street lip, but I'm finding just fibreglass & not cheap either, which leads me to believe that a poly variant will be well out of my reach.

Please help to point me in the right direction.

^^ what he said, OEM SE is awesome, the CF one is nice but fitment is hit or miss.

EBay has oem knockoffs for pretty cheap... like $100... dont remember what material it was made out of though. I bought one ages ago and it was spot on in fitment, pretty durable too...

Yes, I've seen them, but I want something bolder. I have the CF sill and bumper extentions, so the oem SE won't compliment them. I'll do subtle CF splitters to complete the look. Besides, I'm in South Africa and we have maybe 40/50 IX GSR's here, no SE's, so getting that lip from the agent will cost a fortune.

The first pic is the one I referred to that I don't want. The 8 has the lip I'd be happy to get. The last one with the Voltex I really like.

That's pretty much exactly what my car will look like apart from the 17" R33 GTR wheels and that the car is black.

Yes I am. That pic is just an example of the type of lip I'm looking for.
