Default Wanted, Front lip spoiler for a Bugeye



I'm after a front lip spoiler for my bugeye

What i dont want to do is pay a dealer £295.00 for the OEM one, problem is i like the OEM one and the EGR front lip spoiler which is very similar

I've tried a Group Buy on the EGR kit but no one seems that interested and besides i'm not too fussed about getting the skirts (mine are already CC'd) and the rear skirt but given the price these were going for i thought why not

So my question is, who of you have got a similar looking front lip spoiler to those above, if so, where did you get it from, how much and have you got a picture?

I've tried all the places i can think of but just cant find anyone who copies the OEM or EGR one

ATM i'm thinking of just buying the whole kit from EGR and binning or selling the skirts which, i think is a bit wasteful.

Sorry to rant but Nick Adams the tw@t picked up an OEM front lip for around £120.00 on here the other week.......................... GIT

I'm not that fussed on the morette one mate, although i will keep it in mind if i cant get the EGR or OEM one sorted

Cheers

Pete

You may not know this but the egr kit is used as an oem item.I got mine from egr direct they dont normally sell direct to the public but they had a lot in stock and wanted to shift them,give them a ring and try your luck got it for a very good price as well.

Have you any preference in the material of your lip spoiler Buzzer? i.e. GRP, carbon fibre....

Scott, GRP really as i dont have any CF on the car so i think it will look a bit odd............................ but then again has anyone any pics of a carbon fibre one on a bugeye, ive seen the one you did for the blobeye and that looked v. nice but maybe a bit expensive as i can get a full kit from EGR for £300.00 + £125.00 painting


Edited to add: Gary Dawson wont do me a "one off" lip in GRP
