Thats very true, and the s13 pignose, 626, and 929 all require modiciation. Only Corksport makes a lip designed for the s4.

I guess I'll just make my own.

That looks like the Corksport lip to me, but obviously the GT model wasn't USDM. Is the s4 CS lip a replica of a Japanese company's?

Also, that is one of the cleanest s4's I've ever seen.

renton's pic is an S4 that was from the RS-Watanabe website. i'd believe it's more of the S5 TII lip that's probably retro-fitted to some extent.


(not trying to show off my FC, just trying to show differences, that's all. =P)




it tapers upward at the end like this. then again, i guess somebody with an S5 TII lip has to donate their lip to an S4 FC owner and see if they can make it fit for their FC...

Fris's lip looks exactly like the lip that guy was selling for the s4/s5. If its not than I'd be surprised.
