With all this talk of front lips..

Why dont you guys just buy a different lip and mold it onto the bumper. All this about Wings West going out of business, who cares. Look different. I wish I had gotten a different lip sometimes. Get a Mugen, or TL OEM, or something, and just make it all a one piece and be custom.


And be done with it.

The difference is minimal. By the time you bought a lip, painted it, had it installed, you might as well have paid the extra 200 or 300 to get it a custom piece molded.

lotta peeps dont do it 'cause it's not nessecarily worth the time, fitment issues, money, or it just doesnt look like it matches... etc.

i just want the WW lip 'cause it's clean, fits right on, and isnt pricey. who cares if "everyone" else has it?? there's only a handful of cl's on the roads here anyways, and only a few are modified, and even less of those have the lip... so fuck it.

basically what we're trying to say.. (i think..) is since WW went out of business.. if u cant find a lip.. dont give up.. find another lip and try to fit it on to your car.. it might look really hot!

WW still is, it's not out of production, I don't know what made you guys think that. WW is currently going under an ownership change and will be shut down for a few weeks. This does nto mean they are going to stop making products.


If any of you had bothered to read their website you'd notice they still have our front dam listed

and you'd see this

I'm very glad you made this point, and interpreted this for all the people that are in a panic, that WW is going out of business.

I just went with the flow. "Wings West is closing down!"
I don't remember who said they were closing down but their
site is up and running just fine so that's cool.

Scotty, i'm curious as to what have, a 3.0 or a 2.x?
