I don't think the deck lip is that bad...it's not drop dead gorgeous like the others in this thread claim...but it's not totally hideous.

THANK YOU!!! Finally, someone else that realizes the APR lip is one of the biggest travesties to ever happen to the front end of an EVO. Greddy lip is hideous as well. The Varis lip isn't great, but I don't think it's that bad.

I think the SE lip killed the need for aftermarket lips. Atleast from the looks perspective.

Thumbs up

i have a carbon se lip. its nice but its kinda jacked up (let friend drive car and hes an idiot). At first i didnt like this lip. but if you look at the 2nd picture, it flows well with that side skirt or anyone that has a side skirt extension. if u take a 2nd look, it kinda makes the car look wider. If a company came out with a replica count me in.
Its something different but not too different, it also reminds me of the evo ix on gt5 prologue , but the tuned version on the game, anyhow i also agree greddy, varis, apr lips are Ghetto.

because I think no one bought it is why it's not being replicated.

Fact. I don't care if the replica was $400, I think I'd still buy it if someone would make one.

i think it makes the front look wider and cleaner. i was never too fond of the taper on middle of the se lip.

Tapered lips ruin a perfectly good look. Deck lip runs straight across which makes the car look lower. ALL lips should be like this

Hell if I know. Maybe everyone should pm, call, protest until they change their mind. If enough people want it, I don't see why any company wouldn't. But then again you cant get a bottom din hvac since Orbital went out of business, and no one has tried reproducing them so idk...
