So is there any suggestion on the best way to clean that crap off our new lips? From my detailing experience I would probably want to use a leather/vinyl cleaner, but I dont want to much shine, feel me? Is there anything you guys already use for keeping urethane clean?

I placed my order tuesday(US time), $371.40 USD all up. That's like $500 AU. I asked if there's a second group buy (not sure he understood cuz of my accent), but he said something along the lines of good to go and only charged me the group buy price of $226.40(?). It was pretty funny trying to explain my street name though. Here we have "crescent" instead of road/street/avenue and he got a little confused hehe. Actually to come to think of it he didn't grab my suburb either...I better call up.

Expensive shipping to Australia but it's so gonna be worth it. No one else has this babey here muahaha you have no idea how hard i was looking for this lip on the web.

Can't wait!

Post up once you get your lip so we can keep track of how fast they are actually getting out there! Hopefully mine is faster, cuz it's worldwide express courier or something rather, 1-2 days from the moment it's shipped out.

PS Thanks masticating cow, you're a bloody champion!

I can see that you are getting a lot of attention with those DRLs w/yellow bulbs. Yeah, I knew about them and was not a huge fan, but they look sick on your car with JDM turn signals and Xenon lip. I might get them.

Searched for DRL wiring, 4 posts came up but none of them was very helpful. Where did you hook them up? Sorry for the thread jack, but I thought other people might want to know too.

They will ship it today or Monday. You will get it sometime late next week for sure. I was 7th person to order, and that's what I was told yesterday.

umm.. i didnt do it the right way like the canadians (supposed to turn on automatically when the car is on), i just hooked them up with a swith kinda like if i were to put on aftermarket foglights. one wire possitive, one on ground, and plug a fuse and switch somewhere on the line, and bam. (i placed the switch where cruise control would go, i dont have cruise control). /thread jack

Got this from PDM-Racing.com

"Canadian daytime running lights direct from Nissan that are low watt lights that can be wired into your parking light circuit, or be wired alone."

Enough with DRL. Thanks adrians_s13!!!!! BTW, it looks like my lip is at home...

Got the lip. There's some blemish and surface is not smooth in the top middle portion, not the bottom. I wonder other people's lips are same like mine. Other area is perfectly smooth and clean though.

Awkward, but thanks, man.

I just got mine today. I test fitted it for the hell of it and now I'm inspired to get off my butt and get the car cleaned up and repainted... haha.

I want to know how much lower the bottom of this lip sits than the bottom of a lipless stock bumper.

And can people please take more pictures?

If it's in the way, you can trim the center section. It should be a easy job.
