I have told Kevin my car is ready for test fitting. Of course my car is the one the original came off so ill be able to tell if the mold worked well.

The only hitch is, i am not local. So ive left it up to him as to whether or not he wants to utilze it.

I'm fairly local, and might be able to come down for test fitting if needed. I am in San Jose.

Chad, I will send one to you for sure when the first 5 arrived.

Anyone willing to come over and test fit is welcomed since we will have 4 lips available by then.

Now that I've finally seen what they look like... I think my brain's fried from scrolling through 7 pages of nothing T-T;

$280 for a CF lip? a bit steep...

I like the other material, though.... any pic of it on a car yet?

no installed pics yet since we are waiting for the arrival of the first 5 lips.

The construction of CF lip is identical to most other CF products.

Would you happen to know the specifics? I don't mean anything by this, but before I buy a part I want to make sure it's going to be quality. Again, I'm not saying that you don't produce or sell quality products, but I have seen some "high quality" carbon fiber things turn out to be not so great. So if there is any chance you could get some info (like the resin used, manufacturer name, base, etc.) or pictures then I would really appreciate it.

alright, since it seems like there is a certain amount of people interested in CF. I will get the factory to produce a CF one for sampling purposes.

Thanks, and I just talked to my manager and I something went wrong with payroll, so I have to wait a few days to get my check. But I may have to wait a little longer, or get an FRP lip instead. (Financial Reasons) Would that be ok if I get a FRP in a week or so?

Ah no. Shipping a lip like this is usually 40-60$. To ship the same lip boxed from MN to Berkly CA was 45$. That is without the cost of the box.

SE7ENS_GARAGE, time and location were emailed to you yesterday.

Sorry if we are a little slow on the reply for these couple weeks, we are very busy and packed with projects.

The factory is currently little slow on the boxes since there was a delay. We will post the shipping price as soon as we work everything out within 2-5 days. We would like to apologize for all the inconvenience and delay this caused. Please contact us if you have any specific questions or concerns. Thank you very much!
