I'm trying to decide wether I want to get an S5 front and toss on the Odula lip, or go with the Corksport type II front bumper, anybody got some pix of each to help me decide?

StreetdreamsGT

Anyone?

Madrx7racer

corksport.

-TAL-

Lip all the way.

Madrx7racer

NOT COST EFFECTIVE TO BLOW 500BUX+ ON a lip when you can get the whole front end for less.

-TAL-

how is something a matter of opinion not cost effective?

Groupbuy on one of the other rx7 sites on feed lips (almost the same as odula lip) for 250usd.

Madrx7racer

^link me to this odula lip group buy. It's not a matter of opinion....the corksport type 2 front end only costs 399 plus shipping.....you are looking at at least 400 for the odula lip(not mass marketed in the U.S.) to import it, thrn you have to find the front end.....explain to me how you don't think it would be a waste of money for just a lip. He obviously like the CS type II bumper so it will be cheaper to buy That.

frigidmonkey

is the odulla the same as the TII style?

Madrx7racer

no......this is TII style (on my fiancee's FC)




this is Odula lip (looks cool but not worth importing):

-TAL-

Go search it down, it's on one of the boards. Just the question wasn't how can i get the largest item possible for my money.

Madrx7racer

no, YOU brought it up and said it was 250 so i just want to to SHOW me and back up what you say. He didn't ask about price but it sure helps to KNOW about what is the best for the $$$. I'm sure you buy stuff without thinking about whether it is/isn't WORTH the cash.....but some of us don't have $$$ to throw around........he asked an OPINION and I gave mine INCLUDING INSIGHT on PRICE.

Well I ended up grabbing a turbo II bumper, I'm considering fabbing up my own lip, because i love the odula lip, the Corksport II bumper is almost like the turbo II n odula lip combo but idk i figure i'm gonna just try to fab my own. (lookin for a good way to kill time anyway. I'm just curious if anyone knows, does the litle plastic grill pieces inside the turbo II bumper pop out or do you have to cut it out? Because it seems like you'd have to cut it out (if it's anything like my S4 bumper). And i'll keep everyone up to date on my project, I've been considering trying to mass produce some Rx7 body parts to make them more affordable.

StreetdreamsGT

Oh, and one more question. Does anyone here have or know someone who has the bomex rear bumper? I love the way it adds more curve to the back end and wanted to put it on my Rx7, but I wanted to know if I would need the sideskirts to make it look good....meaning... does it hang down a lot more than the stock sides?

-TAL-

No i didn't bring up the price at all.

I said lip, and you decided to challenge it. Not sure why.

And yes he didn't mention the price, YOU did.

*EDIT*

Also do you notice how i kept it on topic and didn't stray from what he was asking for?

Madrx7racer

good luck, post pics........are you going to go for an ODULA look? or something completely diff? You can cut them out.......looks better i think.

Madrx7racer

Madrx7racer

yeah......it looks cool but odd at the same time......the FTPs make a world of Diff. on look......the rear is sweet.

Madrx7racer

hey, since you are gonna **** around with lips.....check this one out.....it's my favorite of all lips......(i had it on my old TII and I will buy one when I have extra cash.)






HERE IS A KIT FOR AN S4 that looks really nice and does not take away from the stock body lines:

frigidmonkey

do a search on ebay for rx7 body kit, there are a few good looking ones on there

Madrx7racer

true.......i forgot about ebay.....be careful of the really cheap ones though....you MIGHT have fitment issues.

StreetdreamsGT

I'm going for the Odula look.

And jgrts20 you are the man!!!! The site you gave me, that place is around me, I'm going to have to go check them out in person.

And yes guys i'll keep you updated with pix n all.
