So I was headed into work Friday morning, and hit a patch of ice/snow, and ended up popping the curb around 2 mph, however it was enough force to break the Aero lip that came on the car, and rip the rubber lip off the bottom as well.

Here is what I need from you all, I need options, the prices for the factory Aero lip, and the rubber lip package is over 900 once shipped and all that, not to mention the labor to put it on. What are my options? Can I order an after market lip and install it?

How different is my bumper with the Aero kit from a regular GSR with out the Aero Kit? Is there anything that you all know of with an Aero Kit front that would keep me from installing an aftermarket lip? I thought I read somewhere that there are some parts that are not on the bumper of a car with the Aero kit, that are on the regular GSR fronts.

Any input from you all would be appreciated.

thanks,

No one has any input?

get a aftermarket bumper caelin or remove lip n get a new one...the stock lip look good but too expensive.

 

Thanks for the input Dennis, I was still curious to know if going with the an after market lip will keep my front bumper even with the side skirts when looking at the car from the side. Also if there is a difference in a Aero equipped Evo VS. a non Aero Evo. I heard there was something missing from the Aero equipped Evo bumpers, that is present on the non Aero equipped front bumpers. So I am curious to know if that would keep me from installing the lip.

thanks,

just get an aftermarket lip there are tons of options well under 900. if you like cf you dont have to paint either. i would go with jun or varis if i had a choice. search the X show and shine. if you need help pm me i know all about it.

 

Thanks! I am actually talking with Derek of Rexpeed now, so he is answering some of my questions as well.

I think I may go with the varis splitter, rather than the full lip, and then add in some other accesories, possibly even a trunk lip to go wingless.

 

Wingless X is hot...Rexpeed is an awesome vendor...now I know which X you own..there are quite a few now at the p-lot!

 

honestly i like rexpeeds stuff but not their lips for the X. my friends both have them, two different ones, and they both arnt that great. id go with a "real" jdm brand and get one that looks better. just my .02
