*s13 @ fullboost* · 07-15-2011, 01:35 PM

wayyy over priced !!

*TheRealSy90* · 07-15-2011, 05:59 PM

I like it, not far from what people sell piggy lips for either.

I say go for it and let us know lol.

Tantwoforty · 07-15-2011, 06:22 PM

looks pretty decent, better than a pig lip.. do it and make a nice install and review thread!

Perfect Balance · 07-15-2011, 10:33 PM

I just happened to buy one of these last Sunday. We'll see what it looks like when it gets here.

Xenon Air Dam knock off...right?

frsh4 · 07-15-2011, 10:49 PM

I bought one like more then a year ago. just a heads up the shipping might be pricey. Fit really good actually and fits perfect to the already existing shape of the chuki bumper.

Only decent pic i can find.

curbhuggerrps13 · 07-15-2011, 10:51 PM

East bear Rep not xenon

*TheRealSy90* · 07-15-2011, 11:34 PM

It says "EB Style" right in the add.

STL240SXDRIFT · 07-15-2011, 11:38 PM

and says EastBear on the plate in the pic...my bad.

Carry on...

92lt1 · 07-19-2011, 10:57 AM

you could always get a pignose lip, or if you are cheap as hell then go an get a homedepot lip

92lt1 · 07-19-2011, 03:45 PM

i ordered it, ill do a review with pics when it gets here

Perfect Balance · 07-19-2011, 08:40 PM

Mine should be here tomorrow, but I don't think I'll have any time to install it.

Perfect Balance · 07-20-2011, 05:36 PM

Test fit picture.

Fits really good actually, I had to have someone push in on the vent on the pass side just so I could get enough slack on the driverside to snap it onto the end of the bumper. So tight that it made a little bit of a cracking sound going on, but once it was on, I just went around a pushed it in a bit in a few places and it fit really well and tight.

Still need to sand it and paint, ect, but yeah.

I'm giving it a few weeks at best before this thing explodes on a rock or something.

92lt1 · 07-20-2011, 07:28 PM

sweet dude, makes me feel better about ordering mine.does it actually make the front bumper lower...thats the main reason i want one, as i cant lower my front since i have longtube headers

Yes.

Yes it does.

Socal_sil80 · 07-20-2011, 09:03 PM

I like it but I'm guessing it felt flimsy? feel pretty cheaply made? I'm debating between this and Xenon...

It's fiberglass, definitely doesn't feel too flimsy. In fact, it's standing up in my room right now on the end pieces (kinda like a rainbow) and feels pretty solid. Needs sanding and bodywork, obviously, but it seems good enough for me.

lol you scared me with this previous comment, that's cool tho. I really like how it looks but I wonder what side skirts would flow with this?

Nizzan4u2nv · 07-20-2011, 11:22 PM

A brand new xenon lip can be had for a little more then that. You can still get them brand new from Speed Alliance. I should know because I got one a few months back. Forgot how much exactly but it was less then 300 IIRC. Plus it will practically last forever because its poly and looks much better IMO. That fiberglass lip wouldnt even survive the trip down my driveway.

boogerlovers · 07-20-2011, 11:46 PM

You can get a new xenon lip from carid.com for $235 shipped.

Socal_sil80 · 07-21-2011, 12:19 AM

Yeah from CariD or somethin like that, they basically put in orders for xenon and take about a week to get to you, You plan on matching that lip to your car Perfect Balance? and what color is your car 92lt1?

*TheRealSy90* · 07-21-2011, 02:28 AM

Thanks for actually posting a review! Most people aren't ballsy enough.

I like how it looks, and glad to hear that the fitment is good.

Irresistible · 07-21-2011, 02:45 AM

Actually looks really good...

PDM Racing - Bodykits

well thats the reason i made this thread was to see the other lips out there, im new to 240's. besides that, the lip you listed is not the same. i think the ebay one is alot more clean looking without the holes everyhwere, and it was 185 shipped. thats a fair price to me

damn, i might have ordered this if i knew, i still think the ebay one looks better.

Perfect Balance · 07-21-2011, 11:22 AM

When I said it will explode, it's because of how low it makes the front end, not because it's flimsy.

I personally don't like the xenon lip at all, so I didn't want that.

As far as paint matching, I am planning on it eventually, but I might wait until I find some chuki sides or something to go with it before I do.
