you dont HAVE to cut the bumper for the lip to look better, but it allows MUCH more air flow if you have a FMIC

that is my car in the corksport picture

it being the Odula ("Odura" when said with a japanese accent) lip replica, i'm sure they wanted to leave the gap. Boost Lee from Washington has the same lip.



rommel from the west just sold the same lip recently.
http://www.shineautoproject.com/type1fc.htm
Shine Auto Project lip (FEED/Chargespeed replica)




http://www.odula.com/page/fc3s_l_spoirer.htm
the Odula lip


http://www.chargespeed.com/english/rx7-fc3s-e1.htm
the Chargespeed lip (looks very similar to FEED)


http://www.fujitaengineeringusa.com/fc3s.html
the FEED lip (much like the Charge Speed. almost thinking that Charge Speed is a replica company)

that being said, Odula and Corksport have the gap (for large FMIC applications and where most people cut the grill and bottom of the bumper), while Chargespeed, FEED, and Shine Auto has none.

i remember somebody selling the Charge Speed lip before... i'll try to find the thread sometime.

then shine has a gap as well, I thought by gap he meant where it lines up on the sides with the bumper

I think it looks kind of funky with NO gap

nope. shine has no gap.

if you see the thickness difference on the middle of the lip, the odula/corksport one is thinner than shine auto/FEED/Chargespeed.

no gap looks funny on that red car, with the black you dont notice it as much, at least in those pictures.

When I closed the gap in the car a good 10 degrees hotter with a FMIC, on a car without the FMIC I dont think its a issue



whatever lip this is I see a gap, I can see the asphalt between the lip and the bumper

Sure enough, no gap. I lightened this picture in an attempt to prove there was a gap.
