I do body work for a living so bonding it back together will be no big deal. I may try to find a fiberglass one to make it even easier.



That's the best lip I've seen on first gen. I will be attempting that at some point

eprx799 - DIG the rigs. That under-lip is perfectly executed. thats one thing i normally dislike about front lips / spoilers is they just sit on top. Usually does not flow with the smooth lines of the 1st gens.

jhereg - Man those two cars right there are some of my favorite FB's. I have a pic of that red one - it has lambo doors! pimp! but heavy. lambo doors take huge counterweights or so i thought.

nikko13b - done proper

XXXJ - Here's the Team Gileto car's build thread:
Japanese Nostalgic Car • View topic - My shakotan rx-7 project

Dont think so. The link you posted has a flat lip, Gileto's is angled down. It may look just as good though.
