Hey guys, As you may have known, I purchased the ACS front lip replica from the seller on ebay, Well I recieved it today (my wife called me saying a huge package came for me) so naturally I had to find some time to leave the office for a few hours. hehe

Not knowing exactly how big this box would be i was surprised to see the size. LOL. I Took some pics of it when i just recieved it. I test fitted onto the car and it fits like a glove, what you see is the non painted product, Im taking it next week to my autobody shop to have it painted and fitted, its costing me 350 CDN dollars, roughly 300 USD. Not bad at all....

Furthermore, after close inspection it looks as if this was a direct copy from the real thing, has the same Indentation for the acs sticker and has the acs part and serial number on it, its just like the sylvia lip however i feel it is constructed better.

Pics!




I will post pics of the finished product next week.!

Kris

Please let us know! I'm thinking of getting this too.

Carfreak said his fugazy ACS lip had an 8 out 10 fitment... I wish a replica Hamann full front bumper existed!



Thanks for testing the water!

Yeah I read that as well, Im not too sure exactly what he was referring too, however based on my test fit, it fit perfectly.... It was a bit tight to get on, but im guessing it was meant to be like that as its made to contour the existing bumper...

Im curious to see the difference from both installs. In particularly the fitment around the fogs. You mentioned on your test fit the fogs fit perfectly but Carfreaks had his fogs blocked by 1mm or so.

what was the Ebay ID of the seller for that lip?

I just wanted to know if you'd bought from the same seller as Carfreaks.

I purchased the same lip from EBAY. I'll be receiving it on Tuesday. Do any of you guys have any tips or pointers regarding the install I can pass along to the bodyshop doing the install? Where can I fing the ACS emblem to put on the indentation on the spoiler? Thanks guys.
