Isn't that the factory S5 turbo lip? like $170 some or more for it too? Someone posted about it a short time ago, maybe two weeks or so.

That lip is also NOT the demonspeed splitter. That used to be MY black car he has up on his page, that he uses to rip people off with. NO ONE should buy from this guy.

That lip that the original poster asked about is nothing I have ever seen before, and I've been around for a while now looking at this stuff. It must be japanese.

Well, I have never seen any documentation of that silver lip anywhere in the 6 years I've been browsing for parts on the internet. The feed lip with the holes was the first lip I ever decided I wanted for my own car, but I never got it due to lack of availability.

All I'm saying is that if it's "another version" of a feed lip, it's one I've never seen documented with any of the "regular" feed lips for sale or pictured in any gallery.

I don't think you'll have much luck finding it, but good luck.

Personally I think the silver lip looks like ***, but that's just me. The feed lip (with the holes) is just bad as hell though. Wormiez did make feed copies for $300 shipped, which is a damn good deal.

I don't think so. Look at the sides. The lip with the circles had a body line that goes from the bottom of the front edge, to the top of the rear edge. The silver lip, has a body line parallel to the ground...not the same.

See the opening for the center of the bumper grill? On the lip with the circles, this opening extends on the lip forward, to a point almost. Maybe 1/2" max thickness there. On teh silver lip...look, it is way thicker, say 1-2". Not teh same.

Perhaps they were both made by feed at one time, but they are not the same thing, with/without the circles.
