Oh NOFX, the white coupe that you're talking about on here, I think his username is Tek-C.

enycesam, I used to have a rear lip that was EBP when I got it. Since the brackets were broken off it was impossible to mount correctly. I ended up mounting it just about an inch too tall in the wheel wells, but otherwise got it pretty close.

I ended up selling it for the same price I got it for originally. $200 if I recall. Might have been less.

I got lucky with finding the rear brand new later on. It was even red. I thought dealerships were all out of them, but I guess not.

This would be a nice place to put all the information we have about the lips together.

And thanks for telling me the one guy's name. I'll have to message him and look for his thread. I remember the thread, but couldn't find it last night.

I was thinking about the replica idea and besides that I would really rather not flood the market with a bunch of replicas (not including making appropriate hardware - which I already found out could be very expensive on it's own), I don't have access to the proper tools to make a fiberglass mold. I hear it can be expensive to even get a mold made, but I haven't really researched it because, again, I'm not interested in it.

I'm not into modifying my car for money. This is a hobby for me and making parts would take too much effort on my part. I'm just not worried about it. If I wanted to make parts, I've had far better ideas than replica lips.

More people need to post photos! Should I start posting photos of just random cars I've found online with the lips?

I know more people on here own them. I've seen them post them up before. Perhaps they just haven't been on to see the thread or haven't seen it for some other reason.

I don't want to post anything inaccurate or post people in the list that don't want to be in it.

If you know anyone with a lip, let them know to post in this thread though. :D

A lot of the older members on CC seem to be dying off. I wish I had the kind of money to spend on the 96-98 rear lip and bumper.

Good to see you went lower NOFX :thumbup:. I like how it looks now.

Ehh, it's fine. If he wants to get all fussy, he can go ahead. I just don't want to have to deal with his behavior if it's going to be like that. It's good to see the mod staff working so quickly to remedy the problem. :thumbup:
indeed, it was a hasty intervention, in fact the post disappeared as i was responding to it.

also, i saved pics of the white coupe with both front and rear lips that was referenced earlier in the thread. i'm not sure if the owner would approve me posting them though so we'll just have to wait on him to come across this thread...

NOFX will prolly know this for sure.

But I found a rear one at a dealer in another state BNIB. Ended up selling it to a friend tho. But I know a few people here i think found them at a dealership as well. As for the front...I dont think any dealer has had these for awhile. Maybe outside the US?
