Does anyone other than Jayhar have an aftermarket lip? I've been searching and searching and i've been wanting to put a lip on there. Will a STi/OEM lip fit? I'm not sure about the dimensions. The only possible one i know that will fit exactly are those weird foam ones called "Home depot lip." :hmmmm2:

I think that lip would require a lot of fab to get on. But if you want to do it then go for it I would love to see the end result !

it looks like it can fit, but then again there is alot of molding to do on any custom job. On my old truck back in the day of body kits I really wanted a full body kit for my 1996 tacoma I searched around and came up with nothin.. So I took the time to figure out dimensions on other cars and trucks body kits. So what I found and custom fitted to my old truck was a 1989 civic front bumper and a 1997 integra side skirts. For the rear it was unfinished.

So in doing, anything is possible man..A thing I was also researching on to is taking off the front lip and putting a aftermarket jdm lip from a XB (older models seems to have a close dimension size to our trucks) I found this awhile back but ended up buying the splitter.

Thanks for chiming in. I would love to see a lip product for us. Especially one similar to the STi's. I have a friend who is selling both an STi and OEM Wrx lip. Might have to contact him to check how good it would fit. :top:

Just test fitted the aftermarket sti lip. Looks like its really really close to fitting. Just a few trimmings and a little time it could fit perfect. Looks real sexy too.

I actually dont have the lip. :thumbdown: Just got a test fit from my friend today. I might snag it off him later though since he wont need it. But it fits good imo. Just got to trim the edges and figure a way to fill in the gap in the middle. Other than that i'm thinking it can fit, and i really hope it could. :smile:
