If this is an East Bear item i can tell you the quality is awesome ! :O

Yes it's East Bear and the quality is second to none, bolts straight on to East Bears GTR style ( for GT and GTT ) Front Bar.

Could be fitted straight on to GT and GTT style bars with a little custom work at the sides.

-- Mate, good to see you actually recieved something from Pplay... I took advice from SAU members and ordered this lip from PowerPlay Imports (Joanne) in on 9 July, 2007 and paid 50% deposit ($285)...Now, 4 months later (14 Nov)..I still haven't recieved anything or had any confirmation from Joanne.

I'm starting to belive this whole thing is a con..I was told it takes 4-6 weeks to import from Japan and deliver. I patiently waited and for the first 2 months when the lip was on the way from Japan ..and the last two months everytime I called she said she sent it out and I would recieve in 3 working days. The '3' working days have passed now and now no one picks up the phone at Powerplay anymore (on the number supplied above).

PowerPlay is Bull, I'm in Syd next week..might pay them a lil' visit when Im there and settle this once and for all..

Does fibreglass crack easily? I've got a genuine S3 lip, but it's been colour coded to the car. Might just be easier to buy a fibreglass one??

TommO - fibreglass is fine, until you hit something.

even so - i wore 2 holes in the bottom of my bar when i had it stupid low for a couple of weeks, no cracking, just holes in it :( keep your gen one, and if cheap enough grab a FPR one for everyday driving

I am going to paint my bottom lip tomorrow from goldie yellow to matt black...

I am thinking of priming it down then sand it out all rough edges then prime again but a few layers of paint before going gloss... is this right?

Thanks for the tips fellas... I spent over 1 hour and finally have a really top-looking GT-R-style front lip... I primed it twice then gave it 3 coats of matt black paint... turned out awesome!!

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
