Question Pic Request: Mazdaspeed Lip

Hey guys, looking to try and find pictures of the mazdaspeed lip for the S5 that Corksport makes. I've seen their picture on the website but its such a close angle shot that you cant see much at all.

Been searching the Internet but comes up with nothing useful either. Anybody have any better pictures of this thing?

Doesnt have to be the Corksport one specifically but the S5 mazdaspeed lip. Trying to get a feel for what it looks like overall, im in a toss up between that lip and the good old GP kit. I know i know the GP kit is pretty played out, but im yet to see one around Vancouver. Come to think of it you barely even see FC's around here anymore. Just old beaten up bone stock verts and FC3S's!

Thanks in advance

Thats my only concern going the route with the lip, the car naturally seems to sit pretty high off the ground. The lip and oem sides dont seem like they would sit particularly low and i dont want the car to look like its ready to go offroading! On the flip side im down with the gp sports kit as its the nicest out there but then i face the possibility of it being too low and scraping the living **** out of it!

Decisions decisions.........

Niiice man, yeah that was a really satisfying TII to build. Fitting those Starion wheels was a b**ch though.

I can't remember the offset for the fronts, but the rears were 8" with a 0 offset I believe. Basically they stuck out and I had to roll the fenders to accommodate them. For the front's, the backside of the wheel scraped the brake-calipers and the calipers had to be cut/ground down to fit the fronts... Basically not bolt-on.

But yeah, I've owned about 15. Mostly TII's although my current D/D is a black GTUs.
