Front Lips with Fangs

HoneyBadger · 04-29-2011, 10:26 AM

Hello all. I recently pulled up to far and caught the very center of my front bumper on a landscaping rock in my driveway. FML. While the damage isn't major, it's noticeable and is driving me crazy. As opposed to getting a new bumper, I was already looking into getting a lip and I found one that would also hide the damage, killing two birds with one stone.

It appears that Siebon makes a lip that covers the bottom of the bumper as well as the fangs, the Carbon Fiber NS-Style.

Any members have this lip on their car? And are there any other front lips that would cover the lower portion of the bumper? I'll try to update with a pic of the damage later. Thanks.

That looks like the OEM Nissan S-tune front lip:

the only thing i wonder about those seibon's is if it comes with the mounting hardware like the actual OEM s-tune body kit?

yah, that oem kit looks even better with the edges painted black/CF overlayed.

I believe CC370z has the Siebon on his car.

My nismo s-tune lip. Since its from Nissan you can have it come pre-painted.

Hey, thanks for the pic Liquid. It does appear that the Seibon Carbon Fiber piece is the same or at the least modeled after the S-Tune.

I'm debating back and forth between getting a fang cover (which would also cover the slight damage) and splitter or going with the one piece lip and fang cover.

honeybadger- if you're not planning on getting the sides and rear just get the fang cover (and get the one from thezstore).

It's a great lip.. I get complements on it all time. Easy to install too. If you'd like I can go more in detail. Just pm me and let me know.

I decided to go with the fang cover from the Z store for now. I really like the look of the Seibon front lip, but I think I would want evo blades or a side skirt to go with it so I'll stick with just the fangs. Thanks for all the input.

Hopefully it will get here tomorrow in time for cars and coffee Sat morning.
