Wow that's looks like a very good fit after all the work you put in. Gorgeous.

Did you use the oem lip or did you work with that FRP replica OEM one?

I built two lips, one is authentic OEM and the other is an eBay rep. I'll rock the rep for daily abuse, and have the OEM for backup.

Looks really good man. I like how you kept the top like oem. I am about to redo mine and that is how I plan to do it, more or less. Good work, another silver 01-02 coupe with an OEM "style" lip. Love it.

Thanks man, and yeah, retaining the OEM look as much as possible was the goal.

Jake I really didn't haha. I was just looking at your later pictures and figured that those are the only two non-obvious things.

I thought I told you I built a new retro? Maybe nots.
Oh hey, I've got a move-date. I'll be heading down the second week of May. Some things changed with our living situation, so we had to push back a little and I'll be down this month to re-evaluate a home situation.

How about a Wilwood 13" BBK? I thought that was the most obvious!

im kinda interested in the process you took to build that lip.... makes me want to attempt my own

Now that I take another look, I bet you put in a fraction of the work I did as well. I had a hell of a time getting the top right after cutting the top "lip" off, plus I had to narrow it about .5 in on both sides. I just broke it for the second time, and am fixing it again. Everytime I break it, the fitment seems to get better lol.

damn looking real good there man. the lip came out perfect. ill be in for the pu rep too. where in socal are you moving to?

looks sick

fukken skillz right there......

this makes me want to do a front end swap and get this lip if its put into PU form. It looks simply amazing. I love it.

you should make a deal with bayson R and on your way down to cali have him make a mold of your other lip

^+1
if you do, this is the perfect reason for me to get a coupe bumper!

last 2 pics are just
