>Would it maybe be possible to refabricate a split lip? I could buy one and cut it in half, that way I can stuff it into my suitcase...


I'm sure you could refibreglass it as it's not a flexible plastic...
wow $350 just to get it shipped. Thats ridiculous. You can order a front bumper from RPMGarage and get it shipped for almost half that.
That's just an estimate, and includes the price of the parts too...

im in for a group buy if the price isn't outragous


if they fit in tubes similar to that of a poster packaging . In the uk you can say its paper and you get an extra weight allowance instead of the usual 2.5kgs think its approx 4.5 kgs bring cost down for shipping.

I live in the and as a hobby use my japanese skils buying tiems form japan and selling them direct or bring them to uk and sually export them , if anyone needs a hand with uk or japanese items , drop me a pm im more than happy to help.
It's 6 foot long kindasad.gif it won't fit in a tube.

That's what she said...



That lip looks good, very subtle but yet artsy...
si it should fit on an st bumper, 95?
i found one for a car in the states that fits very well, although it does not have the center indent like the one in this post has.
details next week when it comes in, it costs under 50$ from a dealer, and is OEM plastic/rubbery material.

Just a thought.....

Seat is part of the VAG group, you can order the splitter from VW dealers over here. Maybe worth asking your local VW dealer if they can order some?

Part number is: 1ML 805 903

Top job Presure!!!

The front lip looks perfect and the front bumper is something I've never seen before!

I wish mine had a bit more length so it could run all the way around, although the Celica front dips slightly in the corner so it doesn't stand out too much.

It's strange now I've gotten older, I'd prefer a simple lip rather than a full fibreglas kit. Getting a bit weak in my old age. kindasad.gif

thanks man! i made the bumper a few months ago out of a stock 204 upper section, and the 205 lower...as you can see, i still need the grill for it..lol
i think i will make a new thread for the lip i am using, it'll make for easier searching.
the cupra lip is a great option for you guys over in the uk, or someone here who dont mind paying the shipping or whatever.
funny thing is, i bet there are prolly 10 or 20 diffrent cars that use these style lips that would work on our cars with a little work.

i definetly agree on the subtle lip thing over a fiberglass part, i guess some people would call it "weak"..i call it "experience" laugh.gif

When I was searching for a front lip as you say, there are so many choices available.

I don't think the lip from a Cupra & Elantra is all on offer, some research and I guess common sense in picking a lip from a car with a similar round front is all thats needed. Get something a little bit flexible and it can be DIY'ed pretty easy.
