can you fold a WW rear lip and ship it? if so, will it be easy to unfold? is there any prep work once i receive it?

 

what is a ww rear lip?

 

i think hes talkin bout a wings west lip.....maybe???

 

wings west makes a kit for the 2nd gen tl...prolly wrong forum

 

Yes, POLY can be bent to a degree but not straight in half. If you put it in the sun it will reform.

 

You can cut it in half and put it back together.

 

^why wouldnt it?

 

yea wrong forum.. this is for 2g .. wingswest makes a polyurethane lip similar to the stock lip.... if this can be moved or answered.... im trying to get it shipped and i could save half of the shipping is they bend it... should i say ok or no? has anyone done it?

thanks ronjon .. i wanna be sure tho

 

its a risk, but polyurethene can technically be bent.

you'd have to use some sort of heating gun (blow dryer?) and sit there for a bit till it was soft and pliable and then reform it.

there isn't much risk but if the person keeps it too long it might bend out of whack and if someone tries reforming it sans heat they'll cause a crease

 

i would not bend it in half..... it would leave a crease line in the plastic... something you wouldnt wanna see on your car... so just pay the full shipping... dont take the cheap way out of this

 

Don't cheap out on the shipping. If you want the piece it's part of the cost. I had my OEM lip kit shipped from Bellevue, WA to my place in Edmonton, AB...think that was cheap? It sure as hell wasn't but it was part of the price to have the kit.

 

^exactly...don't cheap out on it ESPECIALLY if you're shipping it to a buyer

i mean the buyer should be paying for the shipping and if it comes with a crease they won't be happy

 

actually... i got my wings west folded.

wasn't big of a problem.. i just let it out in the sun for a bit..

 

really^^ so its not a big deal?

 

as long as it fit well, i was fine with it..


slusshy has my rear lip now and it looks perfectly fine on his too.

 

^well i guess that settles it...

 

Mine was shipped unpainted folded to me as well. Looks great to this day.
