Help needed, someone has a pic of it I know

Ok,
I have found the Stock mazda front lip brand new.

I could either run the 1 piece or the 3 piece.
My problem is that I have never seen the stock 3 piece so if anyone had a picture please post it. I know the FD R1 spolier looks good and it is a 3 piece or 2 piece so this one should look good.

The 3 piece would run $200.00 total plus tax, and if I crack one of the pieces I could just replace that one instead of the whole thing. Much cheaper.

I know there are some fiberglass one out there for the same price but come on....... fiberglass. If I blink it could crack. The factory hard plactic in my mind would be much stronger.


Please post a 3 piece if you have that pic,

Below is the stock 1 piece

The 3 piece one is nothing special, came stock on all the non turbo/gtus cars. You can get them used for little of nothing, no one wants them.

Lip help

Ok, anyone with a S5 front end please post your front lip picture, the material it is made out of and the manufacture of it.
Thanks

Eh...look up. IT's flexible black plastic. It's about 3/4" thick, and it's just the average piece of trim that any regular car would have. The t2 lip that you have pictured above is the desireable one, about 2" thick and painted bodycolor.

You do know that this 3 piece lip is STOCK on all 89-91 nonturbos, right? A few of the 89-90 GTUs cars had the t2 lip...

Note the "ground effects" front lip is different than the 1 or 3 piece "scrape guard" that bolts to the bottom of the nose.

I think these are the correct part #s:

Ya, I was asking to see some pictures of other front lips and to see if anyone else makes a plastic one instead of fiberglass before I order the stock one piece from mazda.
I did not think there was a 3 piece TII lip but I had to ask since I do not know everything.
Thanks for the help kevin.
