Back to the point boys. I hear you can use an MX-6 lip. Or was it the 626 one?

I assumed the OP was talking about lips from other cars.

Corksport has one and so does shineauto and mazdatrix (d'uh).

Lips off of other cars that i know fit r the s13 lip and I'm using a 2 piece lip from a 626, i forgot the year though, i think its early 90s. it fits nicely, but the only problem is the lip falls short on the sides meaning it doesnt wrap all the way around the front bumper cover, its only about 1/2in. though.

corksport is having a sale, Or WAS when I bought my MS lip. Only catch is that they are for S5's only. I have no clue what would need to be done to make it fit an S4 but the front ends are so different that you'd better just swap the front end to an S5 one.

Do you think that with adding a lip..one would need to do any work to the back of the car? Because it would then look very uneven and maybe thats the point..but I just had a thought...

depends on what you like. I'd just do an S5 swap to make it even. The lip selection is larger for the S5.

or this:

REALLY CHEAP!

Any thoughts on this?

Reviving this older thread since it’s in the main 2nd gen section already about lips..



originally was going to do the Mach 1 lip but stumbled across this one and contemplating buying one to see if it fits. What do you all think not sure which stang lip goes best with the fc.

https://www.magicdrift.com/99-04-for...oiler-lip.html or just Google “mda Mustang lip”.

For those that own the mach 1 lip, does the top contour of this mda lip look similar to that of the mach 1… fitment wise?

thx

One of my buddies had an old '74-85 volvo 240 lip on his TII and it looked aggressive. 8DK how much work he put into fitting it though.
