Question Is there a 'confirmed' source for a Feed replica lip?

Ok, I have spend hours searching, not only this forum but the net as well and cannot seem to find anybody that sells them.

There have been a number of suggestions on this forum, but unfortunatly all of them have been dead ends, and the next guy that suggests Wormiez is going to get shot (just kidding), he doesn't make them any more!

Sorry if this is a bit of a vent but doesn't anybody check what they are saying is true before notching another post of useless information? I have gotten a LOT of help and good information in the past from this forum and was hoping that you guys can come through once again!

Come on guy's show me that this is still the place for solid RX-7 info!!!

Thanks!

Ahhh, that makes sense now, I called these guys and they said that they could not get them any more...

Talked to Wormiez and his mold is shot...

1 minus 1 equals zero, zip, nada

Damn, I'm glad I hopped on that deal while it was around. They're really nice lips. I still have mine.

FEED LIP

I'm not the most experienced guy, but being in the NAVY as a airframer on F-14's i have some fiberglas work under my belt. Let me know if you turn up anything. Maybe all us FC guy's should get toghether and do some kind of group buy. Any idea's???

I believe the Feed lip is not fiberglass. Isn't it like $450-500? I've heard $600 shipped but DEFINITELY not $800.

Wormiez's replica lip "I think" is fiberglass.

You can get FEED lips at http://www.rxecret7.com/
Look under "Exterior" (obviously..), then FEED aero design, then FEED FC3S, and you'll see it there. It runs for about 450 I think..

They changed the price to 'email for price' but it used to be $350 there. It took me forever to find that link.

PS: Does anyone know where to get the BOMEX aero mirrors by themselves? Thanks.

Holy **** that websight has the most FEED product ive ever seen.
For that front lip, does it require a s5 bumber or can it be also bolted to a s4?
Its damn sexy...

I'm not trying to deter a potential sale but I too was going to go with the FEED replica Lip that are (were) available on the form. It wasn't until I saw 1FastT2's former s4 car (with fitted s5 Bumpers) having the noticable gap on the Fenders I declined.
