THE LIP IS READY…
the first lip was cracked out of the mold this morning and this evening jesse and i went and took a look at it.
we test fit it on Jesse’s car and both he and i agree…
THE LIP IS THE $HIT
the material is so flexible, it is endlessly better quality than the real brand-name piece, there is no comaprison.
this lip is also lighter and more durable than the original lip.
and fitment?
check this out:
This is Jesse’s car with OEM CDM urethane sideskirts.
the lip required NO HARDWARE to fit this well, it simply hugged the sides of the car. jesse was even able to drive around a little bit like this but i didnt let him take it on the street.
we have not and will not be drilling holes in the piece. you will be responsible for deciding how to mount it.
i suggest a couple ziptied and leave it be.
i really cant express how pleased i am with how well this piece turned out, i could not have asked for anything more.
every single lip will take a full day to make, in other words production will be maxed at 1 per day or 5 per week.
every sinle lip spends 12 hours in the mold and is completely hand laid using premium materials.
the gel-coat is a sanding-gel-coat and will never spider crack
flex agents have been added to the tooling-resin to make the piece feel and behave like urethane. (it actually feels like urethane)
economy or general-purpose resins were not used in the production of this piece
as with any fibreglass aero there will be some basic prep-work that should be carried out.
please do not complain to me if the piece requires some minor sanding etc.
i have a short video of jesse and chris mounting the lip onto the bumper flawlessly in less than 10 seconds without hardware or anything.
i cannot post this video due to bandwidth restrictions.
for people who are serious about purchasing this lip i will send it to you.
PRICE
$275 CDN
the target price was in this range, the use of premium materials and the extensive time involved to create this piece are more than enough to warrant this price i think.
at this time i have only this one and i have several people that have claim to it.
i will have another 10 of these lips in the next 2.5 weeks.
first come first serve gentlemen.
for all you Vancouver, Alberta and Nova Scotia guys we will need to work out something for shipping, i have no idea how much this is going to cost.
if within canada i can ship it COD to your nearest purolator.
