I happened to stumble upon this, since I am looking for a lip for my Kouki bumper.

NE1 know where I can get it here in the US? I'm thinking of either calling/emailing C-West here in the states and see what they say.

not to sound like an ass but this is honestly what i think of that bumper with the lip. That is by far the ugliest thing i have ever seen made for a S13. This isnt me bashing on your style, this is me being a friend and telling you dont get that or you will get laughed at

I think it is a rare piece ..rare is good cause not alot of people have it ..but it really is kinda weird lookin ..it just does not flow well in my opinion ..if u do like it get it .how much is it anyway for the lip..

Sometimes things are rare for a reason. But if you like it then grab it.

It's actually PFRP (Pliable Fiber Reinforced Plastic), a material with similar properties to those of FRP, but is a lot more flexible. The front bumper and Front Half Spoilers made with PFRP are much more difficult to crack due to its flexibility.

Seriously. Its rare because its ugly and they didn't sell a whole lot of them due to the ugliness.

HyperTek · 11-02-2008, 01:47 AM

its rare because no bullshit knockoff company has knocked it off lol

dam didnt know takakaira was still around

TheWayItGoes909 · 11-02-2008, 01:53 AM

At first I never liked it or the c west body kit for the hatch ,but I know Cwest R&D all there body kits in wind tunnels,so I'm guessing the design has purpose to it. would like to see the lip on a dark color/black car lowered properly

CrazyKoukiS14 · 11-02-2008, 09:41 AM

i dont care what kind of plusses you get aerodynamics wise, that thing is that most hideous thing ive ever seen im glad that thing is rare, it reminds me of a riced out 1985 Toyota Tercel with a big airplane wing on it with red tints and $99 hubcap spinners

Hypothetical situation: You are the owner of a knock-off body parts company. You're going through pictures of lips looking for things to reproduce, and you come across a picture of that lip. Would you:
A) Say, "Wow! That looks good, let's copy it!"
or
B) Say, "Whoa, what the fuck were those guys smoking when they designed that lip? Let's stay as far away from that style as possible."

If you have any sense of style at all, you'd go with choice B. lol
