Sorry for the shitty pics.. It's storming here and the gas station wasn't that lit up.. Thanks flogging tires, copied the wrong link

the pic is ok, its just it was not displaying when you first posted it hehe.

and sorry to hear about your lip.

similar thing happened to me when I accidently drove into those cement tyre stops they have in parking lots (didnt even see it was there) and tore my front lip off :(

what did the lip cost?

StarsGarrador 09-18-2012 06:54 AM

Around $280 shipped

I liked the BRZ front end because it already looks like it has a lip on it. Leave it stock, looks good :)

That lip made it transform. Every single person that saw it fell in love. *Le Sigh* and one of the down falls of owning your own bussiness is sometimes you can't cash your checks.. So 2 months no pay I'm not able to replace this and I don't know when I can :( stupid cheap friend not wanting to fix his drive way..

Collect the pieces, reassemble it and wrap it in carbon fiber vinyl. What material is it made of?

Koru 09-18-2012 03:10 PM

Sorry to hear that!

Thanks for sending me a PM. I hope it will help out when you're ready for a replacement.

Good luck with everything else!

Thanks!

Ok, so a little further research shows that it's made of polyurethane. A cheap plastic welding kit can repair it. A little sanding to even out the surface and hit it with some spray paint, and it will look nearly perfect. Or, as I mentioned before, you can wrap it with vinyl to create a more interesting finish.

Don't have the pieces, it was in a storm so I had my buddy go out to his driveway and try to find what he could but he said he found a piece like 25 yards down the street. But il see how many he found. Will have to get a new one when I can cash a check or two...
