From my understanding the Wings West factory had a fire years ago and molds were destroyed so all the WWRS lips that are out there are it.

JDMshit makes a Mugen knock off lip now though but I dont know the quality, Im sure it was molded from a WWRS.

The duckbill was made by a company called bodykitsNW by a guy named Andy that was local to me. I dont think they are still in buisness any more though. The wing is almost just like my friends Spoon wing but mine seemed to be better quality/fitment (yes not all spoon parts fit perfect lol) Although I think I paid $350+ for it so it better fit good lol

Did the middle of this lip wrap up into the grill opening? Looks like it did, the WWRS lip does not go up into the grill area like the Mugen lip does so maybe this was a direct Mugen knockoff? The real Mugen has little black stickers that go in the vent holes LOL

Caution, it might work like mine does...not very well. I want an EG6 cluster, whether a JDM or the 140mph one I don't care. The only thing about the JDM is that it's not made for a dimmer switch so it's not that bright in USDM cars.
