GV lip (replica)

[Kevin@nextmod]

Hey guys. I just picked up the first made GV lip replica from SSG. I drove all the way to oakville to pick it up and we did a test fit on my car. I took some pics and a small clip. So here it is.

SSG also said, the price will go up to $250 after this GB. So anyone\'s name not on the list will suffer $50 more. I know that he is not making a lot of money on this GB so he has to raise it to make a little profit.

I know that some people are worried about having a fiber glass lip. so I told the guy to use a new gel coat, a more expensive gel coat thats more flexable. closer and easiler to work with to do a DIY install ;)

[Kevin@nextmod]

If you want to know how low it goes after the lip is installed. Look at the pic i took from the side. It is almost exactly how low the sideskirts are. Which in this case isn\'t so bad.

You need to get yourself Firefox! Mac\'s are my business. I just hope you aren\'t using Internet Explorer *Shivers* they haven\'t updated that thing since OSX even Safari is getting very outdated.

[Broli]

Yes i do, but SSG is willing to make an AutoExe style grille for the sedan, like he said, he want to make more stuff for us!! :p

So lets start a list to see who is interested, if there is no sedan owners interested, i might try to get this from him as a personal project.

[3GFX]

That looks awesome!!! I don\'t really like any of the complete bumper kits out there for the 3, but that lip extension looks great. :hoho Might just look into that for the future :D

Similar style to the GV lip, but for the rear. I would be interested in something that flows with the stock side skirts.

how is the sedan version coming along? is there a diff between the GFX pckg bumper and the other model bumpers? I ask because GV has 2 styles depending on which bumper you have stock is...

I\'m in Oakville, if you need someone to be a guinea pig if i can score a discount on the sedan version...

yes their is a difference between the 2 bumpers...

but this is exclusively for the gfx cars, as the lower models have the kenstyle front lip acustomed for them already.....their is nothing for us GFX guys ....

[CoolColombian]

Well, there are options, but i don\'t really like them.

Option 1 (http://www.visionworkz.com.sg/cars/mazda3-4d-ken/car1.htm)

Option 2 (http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?topic=49565.0)

Option 3 (http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?topic=49478.0)
