I don't think this question was asked before, but i have an 89 with a chuki front bumper, I was wondering if the lip would still fit, the fenders dont align perfectly, and I've never put on a lip before, so I dont know if this wil be a prob.

Updated list. I haven't taken anyone off just yet because this may take a week or so to materialize. Everyone who at least WANTS a lip should be on this list. We only need 10 for the GB, so unless everyone bails, anyone who can pay for one will get one.

Okay folks, so far, no news. I've been swamped what with getting ready for the school year, but regardless, I still haven't received anything from Xenon. I hope to try and contact them tomorrow and see what's going on.

The list has also been updated.

so masticatingcow you already have this lip?

Best lip a chuki bumper could have... imo for what it is, the price isnt expensive. It's hard to find a GOOD, BRAND NEW quality lip.

Let me put some thought into this . Ive already wanted one the first time i saw Sean's (NeedCAForS13) coupe

It's a match.





It's the same car, same wheels, same kit. I know the 35mm original is a little grainy, but trust me, it's the same car.

Looks like I done found a Xenon lip. Huck yuck.

I'm calling tomorrow in the AM to find out what we need to do to organize the GB purchase with StreetBeat. Expect an e-mail within the next 24 hours.

Hahaha. This is interesting. I just stumbled on this thread. I am actually friends w/ the guy who owns the white S13 in the first few pics you posted. His girlfriend actually gets the credit for finding out about the myth that Xenon stopped making lips for the S13. She just called the corporate office and they explained to her how they didn't stop making it and gave her the correct part # and a list of distributors.

For anyone who wants to know. I've seen it in person. It fits very nice and looks super hot. I just find it amusing that Masticatingcow went into the Delaware meet thread of 240sxforums.com and found out about it. Kudos! What did you do? A search on 240sxforums? Because when he posted the pics of his car and the info about it everyone in our club thread ignored his links/info about the lip (except me, i send him a pm about where he got it). I hope there isn't a limited supply of these from Xenon, would be nice to find out whether or not a group buy will deplete their supplies.

Good luck w/ the group buy.

Interesting that you pop in just in time for me to open the envelope that Xenon sent me with the original 35mm slide of the demo car.

Well you caught me. As I posted before,
masticatingcow wrote:Saw this info floating around another forum... figured there'd be interested parties here...
I also never said the car in the pics was mine. Reread the thread. Regardless of who broke the myth in the first place, I did all of the leg work to get the news and confirmed part number to NICO. Why don't you "stumble" through the rest of the thread before starting in with the sarcasm?

I don't understand why people are so catty about this crap. I thought I'd do the NICO community a favor by sharing information I had come across. Since I started the thread, people expressed interest in a GB, and I used what little contact information I had to see what was possible. I asked the questions and got the answers. THAT'S ALL I TAKE CREDIT FOR. So get off your high horse and give me a break.

The fact is, no one else on these forums would have made the calls, inquired on the group buy, or double checked that there would be adequate supply. Read the thread.

Anyway, I've already been in contact with Xenon and they said they'd be able to fill just about any order... it's just a matter of time. Thanks for your concern.
Whoa. Way to mistake my post. I just found it amusing. I was giving kudos for the group buy deal and asked a few questions and gave some background info on how we found out about it. Don't get defensive.

I apologize.

I'm going on a couple hours of sleep and, well, it's been a long week... first week at the new job and honestly, it's REALLY challenging. On top of that, my RX-7's been impounded and, well, I just wanted the Xenon thing to work out.

Anyway, thanks for sharing the info. I guess we all should be thanking your friend.

Sheesh! You know me, I'm an OG, I don't troll people's threads, thats what Chmercer and McRusselpants were for. I'm serious, good luck w/ the group buy. If I had some $ I'd ask to be added on, but I'm looking at a clutch job right now instead. That, and I'd think w/ the winters here in DE i'd be plowing snow with it since my S13 is my daily.

Yeah, honestly, when I first read your post I was like, WTF? skydragoness? I should have gone with my gut and assumed you were in support of it. Thanks.

well im happy someone found use for the info i posted im the guy who posted up all the info on the lip if anyone has questions about it i can awnser them

it is urathane and nearly indestructable ive allready got some road kill no damage and drug it on the concrete no damage

mounting is done by double sided tape screws in the center inlet back of the fenders and they call for 2 on the front but i didnt put those in

it will not fit a zenki i was originally sent the zenki lip since i was tracking the part #'s and they told me there was no info the only thing i could do was just order and return with a restocking fee if it wasnt the right one

5351 is the right part# for just the lip 5340 is for the whole kit

all parts are made to order thats why no one could ever find it before

it took 6 months to finally get it after searching and calls thanks to my girls help

but like i said if that doesnt awnser your questions feel free to ask me ill try to remember to check the thread

Thanks a mil - We definately found use for that info! When I came across your post on 240sxforums my jaw hit the floor and I didn't believe it... people had been talking about this part for a long time and no one really knew where to begin with it. So I just took what I knew and did what I could.

Sweet deal. Anyway, mystery solved. I guess I had better send that slide back to Xenon.

Can you confirm as 94_240sx mentioned before...
94_240sx wrote: What's the finish? I don't think it's real black. A friend of mine, his Xenon lip looks more like dark brown. It might have been faded though. I wonder if they can make it just plain matt black just like OEM Chuki lip. You know what I mean? Can you confirm the finishing color when you get a chance to talk to them again? Just checking...
Thanks!
