Sorry but it is an european car that i doubt so much you can see it on the states... sorry ^^

and the only modification that has been done so far to fit it is making 6 holes on the stock lip supports that allow fit it on it´s stock bumper and it even has two holes on the sides that fit perfect on the stock holes on the S4 bumper!!

Thanks for being stubborn and not telling us what it's from. Looks like you need a new bumper more you need a lip after looking at the left corner. I haven't seen this lip done on a rx-7 yet, hopefully it doesn't rub too much. My "626" lip does here and there.

if the guy just posted in a "post your FC" thread, but instead he makes his own lip thread that contains no information, kind of stupid

My thoughts exactly. Why even post photos up? So you can show off your new lip and rub it in everyone's faces?

"Check this awesome lip out - I won't tell you how to get your own!"

Jerk.

Yeah there's no sense in being so hush hush about the lip. If the car he got it from is not avaible in the states what is he worried about. Yeah we might be able to get our hands on the lip, just not run out to our local salvage yard to do so. Personally I like the look of the lip, but I think it would be nice to share info giving members here another option.

Hahahahahahatake it easy guys, it was only a little joke to make it a little bit more interesting

It is a SEAT TOLEDO first generation lip and i´m not afraid of you finding it yourselves.
If any of you is interested in it and can´t find it by himself don´t hesitate to ask, like someone has already done.

As soon i know how much are the costs of buying them at the junkyards and sending them to the states i will post it.

Regards and sorry for bothering you with my jokes, i know my humor sense is not understood most of the time

i'll prolly like it more if the grill were back to "stock".

then again, looks like you got your FC painted recently so it's cool.

My bumper is totalled so it will be replaced, the inside is repaired with lots of bondo, the old owner had a little crash and someone repaired so awfully, plastic glue,bondo, glass fiber... and also the inner bumper (the metallic bumper) was cutted because it can not be repaired...
the whole car has to be painted believe me...

up close it looks cool but you need to see the whole picture to really make a good judgment on it.

lets not forget, big'o double d's look good upclose but when they're connected to a 400 pound fat girl. . . . .

Thanx for sharing, I spoke with one of my V-Dub friends & he said they use them on the Corrado & Golf. Here's a link to get them.
