Exclamation S4 Front Lips

I tried searching for S4 lips but couldn't find any. Can anyone tell me what lips they have for the S4? Maybe side skirts and rear lips for the S4? I just god new TanabeGF springs and KYB AGX Shocks and really want to make my FC look nicer with a lip. So if anyone knows about any lips for S4's then shoot away. Thanks!

What? You bought an S14 bumper for your RX-7? Um, do you mean lip? I hope so.

If you do, then yes, that would be correct, they don't fit the S5. You see the S4 and S5 bumpers are different...

is there a lip for the s4 that looks like the (cork sport) Odura lip? i think that would look far more agressive. personaly if i had a s5 bumper skin and the Odura lip i would get rid of the grill and cut the bottom section in the middle out for a front mount intercooler which would give it almost like a "big mouth" look.

and example of the Odrua


and here is what the "big mouth" might look like

s14s are 4 inches wider than an FC. If you dont mind a little cutting and fiberglass work you can make it look good. zenki s14 lips look pretty good and shouldnt be too hard to find.

im the only one that makes a decent lip that fits the car. My life is a total mess right now getting put together peice by peice. Financially I am a mess as well and I am not taking orders unless I have stock to ship whereas before I was taking prepayments but when things would go down it sometimes ended up being months before I could get things done which has been a major pain in the ***. I just shipped a prototype lip which was alright and hopefully the customer gets it installed an painted with no prob. I use much thicker gel coat now and a much better more flexible resin and layup than my first lip. Ill be putting out some good product with no wait hopefully in the future and when I can stand on my own two feet. Check me out www.rx7pro.com, and hopefully ill have stock notices on the website, i dont want to give anyone a headache or myself keeping a wait list.

humm didnt realise the s14 was 4 inch wider - i reckon about 2 inch cut out the middle would do it

not sure yet - gonna wait till i fit the FMIC to see if i can make it fit

only cost me £10 ( $20 ) so it was worth a gamble

s14 is about 2 inches wider than s13, s13 is about 2 inches wider than FC... sooo theoretically the s14 should be about 4 inches wider than the FC. But then again, most cars are a couple inches wider than an FC.
