Exclamation front lip question

Hey guys/gals

What year and model RX did this front lip come on. I guessing that it would be a 1991 model, I have a 1990 and the front lip has a indent in the middle the follows the body line. I like the look of this one going straight across instead.

Chris Y.

PS nice car who ever owns it.

that's the stock 89-91 turbo II lip. not many cars still have them since the drivers always bust them off. mines on but it's being held together with alum sheeting and rivots thanks to the last owner who gave it to me in pieces...

Isn't there t2 sideskirts that came on a couple 89-91's?

I heard they were ultra rare, there was a guy near me that was parting out a v6 t2 conversion that had an RE amemya (sp?) front that I was looking at. He had the sideskirts but he said they were already sold.

I wasn't aware that the sideskirts are rare. Guess I better hang on to the ones I have then. Hmm, on that note, I'd better make sure I get the front fenders from the car I sold my cousin. Oh, hell, I just better buy the car back from him...

yeah, i think the T2 sideskirts were on every 89-91 T2 produced. i'm pretty sure none of the n/a's got them. unless a T2 is parked next to an N/A its not "too" noticeable...the lower rounded area under the doors are more accentuated, along with the fender moldings now being a part of the side skirt...

Here's the part #

Let us know if you have found this anywhere. The place I used to get mine recently told me they've been discontinued.

I guess, I've only seen them that one time. Anyway how many 89-91 TIIs do you see every day other than yours...

Yup yours is the only s5 I have seen period. Well other than mine. I have counted about 6 s4 TIIs around Richmond.
