As Stevo says...this is for TechArt bumper only.

Got the estimate of price guys.
He said it's about 250/piece which I think is really cheap for a piece like this. However there will be shipping charge. I'm not sure which shipping company is good, reasonable priced and can do a good job on wrapping.

The best would be local pick up of course.

The question still remains..will it be as low as the original? Can we get one version with less drop? That is a great price BTW.

The lip can be modified to anyway we want as requested...
i'll probably have it cut back half inch and round it up at front.
Since it's a custom made piece straight from mold, changing its shape won't be a problem.

here's the group buy forum. just leave name and quantity demanded...

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...49#post1236649

leave the comments here on this thread, the link above is only for quantity count. please post only if you're serious, and once decided to proceed, i might take a little deposit like $50 cheque just to secure the order but i won't cash it. I just don't want people to back off and i gotta end up buying all of them myself.

I'll do it if they are at least 1" higher...I like the rounded up in the front idea...thanks for putting this together.

1 inch higher? I think that might be over doing it b/c the tilt down part is only 1.5inch in measurement. I don't think it'll look good b/c we also have to consider that the two ends won't change much. I think 0.5inch is probably the right size and anything above that will be over doing it.

Let me know what you guys think.

The problem is 2 fold....1) the lip extends forward at a down angle (bringing it closer to the ground) and 2) the 1.5 inch segment drops it again...I think we need to make the lip (1.5) smaller and maybe shorten the extension? I just don't want to be driving around like before worried about any undulations in the road.

This is true!, but don't look to adjust the extension from the car outwards. I am going to be using mine on the track to give me slightly more downforce at the front. Mine has always scraped (at worse) 5/6mm along bottom, so if we remove/trim 1/2 to 3/4 of inch of bottom, i'm sure this would be fine!

Kevin, do u know how's the fitment? I got mine TA CF front lip from Forum sponsor but the fitment is not 100% perfect. I had to trimmed by myself.

Count me in cuz it's a good deal!

Also, the clearance is very low. (pics below)

Thanks!
