Default Somebody who can tell what lip this is?

I'm very curious what kind of lip I have. All I know is that it's from Japan, but it doesn't have a label or so. It's made for a facelift ek with the original mounting holes and fits nice.

It's full carbon, no other material is used...

Reminds me of the Mugen lip, sorta. Except the Mugen has two holes (obviously), but still. Looks nice.

Finally I know what lip it is, never knew about Purple Speed. I've seen some people with the eg frontlip from Purple Speed, but not yet someone with an ek.

It's a big lip, I couldn't get any lower (I'm now lower than the pics..) with my car because of this lip. Holland isn't that much fun with all the speedbumps!

get some one to... or even you should make a negative mold of it just in case you crack it or ruin it

that way you could cast another- I bet they are pretty hard to come by right?

I'm very carefull with this lip, within 2 months I'm going for a paintjob, the lip will be taken care of also. It doesn't have any cracks, but some damage to the paint.

I now know they are very hard to come by..
