robispec hood & APR lip

just ordered an oem c/f hood from robispec and he also got me a fiberglass oem ix front bumper with the apr lip all in one. from what i hear it just came out very recently.the bumper and the lip is all one piece. If someone could post some pics of there robispec c/f hood or the oem ix front bumper with the apr lip all one piece like i am getting soon if anyone has it yet. it can be any color evo not just red just want to get an idea of how it looks. i also want to give a big thanks to Robert@Robispec for the excellent customer service and for a hood that has to be made he is getting it to me along with the bumper in 8 days. gauranteed perfect fitment on the hood or he will give me a new one. and he said the hood pins are a big pita so he is coming to jersey for business on june 1st and he is going to personally install them for me for no charge!! i mean i just spent just about 2 grand with him but he is a great guy and would recommend him to anyone that wants any exterior part or anything he makes.and as i said post pics if u have either one of those parts.thanks guys

Nils has the Robispec cf hood and trunk lid.

Search for some pics if you want to see how they look.

This is the first I've heard of the bumper and lip in one piece, so I doubt your going to have much luck finding a pic of it.

if its OEM, it cannot be fiberglass. these are more than likely are the replicas of OEM. Should call it oem styled fiberglass hood and front bumper.

OEM front is urethane. If it is FRP, then it's not OEM. May be OEM shaped though.

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer = Direct from Mitsubishi

Your sir are incorrect......the OEM front bumper is or was never made out of fiberglass!

Since your the one needing the help, please stop the name calling its really uncalled for

it's a good bumper. it's very strong. the best replica out there and best part of it is that it have a doluck looking lip integrated.

one piece would kind of suck...

lets say you pull up to a parking thing to fast or a speed bump and crack it... you may need a whole new bumper, as oppose to only replacing the lip....

thats just me...

Cheers!
