It's a two piece, so I bolted the outside corners first met in the center trim to fit a little bit to fit and boom, it a decent lip Iv used Jetta lips on a lot of cars iv owned, a bagged merc grand marquise, turbo crx, couple rx7's. Cant beat them for 10 bucks a pop.

They're all stock bumpers with front lips, most pictures state the name of the lip underneath

Really like this! I cant tell either if the grill was cut out or was painted black, and u just cant see it. Either way, looks great!

I actually painted the grill and part of the bumper. Here's another pic.

It actually sort of looks like an aftermarket bumper. Match it with some nice subtle skirts and rear. Look pretty good.

Looks really good with the lip painted body color, I just had mine painted black. Reminds me of the old ISMA FC's from the 80's. A bigger wangan spoiler would set that look off if thats what your going for.

im in love with the look of your FC!!! i've been looking for a pignose lip for a while now, i think im going to give my jetta lip another try for now. im planning to paint my s4 solid white and cut the grill out of mine some time ago.

can i ask, what rims are these and how much do they weigh?

also any opinions on what skirts someone would match to a lip like this? i don't think the stock turbo skirts would sit as low as the lip
