Initial D FC Front Lip.. who makes it?

Does anyone know who makes the lip from the Initial D FC? I'm getting my 89+ bumper and want to purchase that lip. Is it a JDM lip? Or some japanese company? If anyone finds out, please tell me. I check other threads and everyone says its a FEED lip but its not. The FEED lip is similar buts its not the same. The holes on the FEED are rounder.

They look darker, or maybe its just the light cause the rear is pretty shiney

those are probably 99 spec wheels then he had them powdercoated to match his car color.

but the lip?!! gosh, this is upsetting. I've looked almost everywhere for it.

Initial D is so cool. I'm going to paint my car white, and MAKE that spoiler. Throw a TII hood on my N/A, make it right hand drive, and ship it to Japan, so I can drift with the KINGS... take THAT!

Just in case I am the only one who knows why front wheels are often darker than the rears, brake dust is a BITCH to clean. Especially in the 89-91 T2 mesh wheels with like 384 holes.

Brake dust is a possibility, but I think it would be kind of unlikely for the front wheel to have an even cover of brake dust on the entire wheel, even on the spokes. if he managed to get that much on the spokes, I'd think that inner well of the wheel would be pitch black (or brake pad black).

That lip is made by MazdaSpeed, FEED, and many, many knock-off companies. I even know a guy that bought a mazdaspeed one, made a mold and is now making them in his garage. Mazdaspeed and the FEED lip go for between 400 and 500 bucks. Yea, thats alot. Ive seen the knockoffs got for about 200 or so. A place called demonspeed used to make the same thing, but they screwed a bunch of people out of their money and so they suck. Hope this helps.

Demonracer sells a very nice front lip. The catch is he takes your money and doesn't send you the lip! hah!
