Front lip

Cracked my front lip this morning and need to find a new one. I was thinking about just going with a carbon fiber one, but will settle for a factory one. Where can i find em though? I have searched through speed elements, lancershop, and mach evos site. Just looking for a good quality lip. Thanks for your advice in advance!

Lancershop has the Seibon lip (varis replica I believe) or the Buschur lip? Both priced between $400-500.

Ive looked around in the for sale section for used factory and aftermarket lips, but with little to no used. Someone locally just said they have a CF lip awaiting install, so i may just pick their lip up and paint it. Thanks for all the help and keep the suggestions coming.

Last I checked, OEM was about $200 (could be wrong) I am in the same boat as you. I banged mine up a while back, but its not that noticable. If you go OE, I believe they only come in painted White. So you will have additional cost for finish paint. After all costs, it works out to be just under what a CF lip would be. I'm going with JDP when my new front cover shows up . Good luck with your decision.

Trip, you're in the same boat as me! I took mine off recently to prevent it from totally breaking off the car. The previous owner broke some of the clips that hold the lip on,I assume, by scraping the ground somehow. Hard to believe that since the evo sits rather high stock.
