Cheaper Lip alternatives - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hey guys. Looking at getting a front lip for my brz. Im in love with the uras front lip but at 350 for the lip and 150 for shipping ill pass. Anyone know of a cheaper alternative that looks similar. I like how the lip covers the center piece of the front bumper. Any help is appreciated.

That's pretty much a charge speed lip. But, the middle was modified. You can get a polyurethane lip that looks just like that but without the molded CF middle piece for like 120 bucks shipped. check Amazon or ebay.

Bayson R has cheap polyurethane lips. Check out eBay

Do these front lips fit perfectly on the bumper? Or do they have to be modified to fit? I'm debating whether or not to purchase one from Jonmotoring that sells the Forcewerkz brand. I asked two body shops if they would attach a front lip to my car and the answer was no. They claim it may not fit correctly. I was curious to see how much they would charge.

I want to say, that sometimes it's worth paying to play. I bought my TOM's lip for 500 shipped. It's a big chunk of change, but it fit perfectly. There's no way cheap replicas will fit the same way.

However, I will say that most of the lips that bolt on under the bumper and not like a cover fit good regardless of replica or not.

I tried the Bayson R and didn't like the fit, sent it back and got the one from Racingsolution. It fit perfectly. A friend of mine just bought a really nice lip that is even cheaper, looks great and also fits perfectly. I'll call him today and get the brand.

would this fit on a brz?

Scion and BRZ bumpers are different, so no, won't fit.
