Lip For R32

[bert_]

hey guys, so i found it very hard to find a aftermarket lip specifically made for an r32 gts-t, so i attempted to make one from another car fit.

this is how it turned out.

let me know what you guys think. all opinions and advice will be considered.

still abit of work to do on the lip but this is how its sitting for the time being.

cheers ladies and gents

What car is this from? I think it looks a bit chunky on the sides but overall a good attempt because yea lips aren't easy to come by for R32s. Try sourcing some Type-M or the stock aero skirts for your coupe, it'll suit the lip better.

its from a dc2 type r, i had to chop the lip in the middle as the integras are abit wider. my first attempt for a DIY body mod

too bad my lip snapped today =(

looked good for home made

get a type M bar or gtr bar instead of another lip

I personally say take it off. It just looks 'cheap' and not suitable. I know how bad you want one of these fucckasss mate...I wanted one for my R33 GTS-T a few months back too. There's two things you can do mate...

1. Ring up Nissan Australia and order a genuine R32 GTR front bar diffuser (lip) and affix that to your front bar, but it won't be cheap and will take around 2 months to get here.

2. Buy a replica GTR front bar and saw the lip section off and then buy yourself a carbon fiber wrap roll and wrap the whole bottom lip in carbon fiber and then screw it back on as separate piece...would look sexy as...a few people have done this before and I've seen one in real life - it looked tough.

So there you have it mate. Good luck.

PS: Notice how I didn't suggest you get a genuine R32 front bar...this is because you'll need R32 front guards or it'll look weird plus it would be like $2,500 plus postage to get over here then there's the front guards issue...so hence, not a smart thing to do.

thanks for the replies, but since it snapped i might just get a full vertex body kit or replica gtr front bar. just not sure if it'll suit the r34 gt-t wheels ive got on since i dont plan on changing them lol.

[aussietroy]

imo go with the gtr replica

vertex is abit plain for me

but different people have different opinions

so do what you like and either way itll look pretty sweet

i like the fat look of the vertex, replica gtr bars are still pretty hard to find. i dont want to goto carmate as ive heard that their quality isnt as good as it could be for the price being paid. maybe ill take a look into another type of front bar
