So I ordered an INGS+1 CF Lip, waited 8 weeks, unwrapped and...................

edit: nevermind just reread title. I thought you were saying you received it and waited 8 weeks to open it

Oh man, that would be depressing to see after such a long wait.

I actually sold my ING+1 replica in FRP just so I could pony up more cash to get the real deal from INGs in CF

I imagine when you are paying $700+ for a lip they would re-cehck that stuff....perhaps it was a rushed batch? I know most of these are not built till there is an order...no excuse though

Any updates?

I just had my Ings GT wing installed a few weeks ago, and went over it 3 times to make sure there wasn't any cracks or anything, didn't see any.

Sorry to hear about your lip and hope you can get it fixed.

From the Install:

Other shots:

Winter wheels (which failed

)

I don't have any really good quality pics as I don't have time to do a good shoot of it. Prolly won't until the spring, all I can say is I love it.

Thanks bud.

RyanWest · 12-17-2012, 09:22 PM

probably because it was used!

kenchan · 12-18-2012, 02:02 PM

yah, the ings piece is not a finished product. you or a bodyshop needs to prep it and paint/clear coat it.

mine looked similar to that. i took a few nights after work to sand it all down and UV coated it clear.

looks like a factory piece now.

I dont think just clear coat will make this look good.

kenchan · 12-18-2012, 02:20 PM

if those are voids (cant tell from picts) those needs to be repaired/replaced. mine just needed to be sanded down to prep.

VDC_OFF · 12-18-2012, 02:33 PM

look like chips in the carbon fiber to me

kenchan · 12-18-2012, 02:39 PM

that sucks.

The vendor had a new CF lip ordered to replace the damaged one.

I was supposed to receive a new lip in January. As of a couple of days ago, I received a notice from my vendor saying that they had received 2 CF lips, BOTH looking like crap as well.

At this time, I'm not interested on a replacement anymore. Working out on a refund.
