Awesome. Even better news would be that they aren't charging like $500 shipped for them...

Any word on if they still make the rear lip? I might shoot them an email... that looks sick.

YES, I'M ORDERING DIRECT, I CALLED ASKING TO SEE IF THEY STILL MADE IT AND THEY CONFIRMED PART#5351 AS REAR LIP FOR 180SX, I ASKED FOR A PRICE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME AN ACURATE PRICE BECUSE THEY SELL WHOLESALE, AND SINCE I WORK FOR AN AUTOMOTIVE WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTOR WE SWAPPED INFO, BECAUSE THEY ARE INTERESTED IN GETTING THEIR LINES DISTRIBUTED THROUGH US IN THE EAST COAST, SO NOW I SET UP A MEETING BETWEEN OUR BUYER AND THEIR BRAND MANAGER TO CARRY THE LINES. NATURALLY IF OUR COMPANY DECIDES TO BUY IN WHICH IS VERY LIKELY, WE WILL BEGIN TO OFFER XENON PRODUCTS AS WELL AS THEIR OTHER LINES TO AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTORS, WHICH WILL ALLOW ME TO GET THE LIP AT A VERY GENEROUS PRICE..........

Badassery. Talk to Greg or one of the admins about becoming a Nico vendor/sponsor. I bet he'd love to be able to advertise Xenon lips here...

You know that beastly looking black s13 that greets you when you pull up 240sx.org? That's his. He owns NICO... like, literally.

zer...id=13

And... if you wouldn't mind terribly taking off your caps lock?

I just got off the phone with xenon myself. The guy I talked to was a bit of a smart a**, but he said the part #5351 is the front lip and he couldn't give me a price because I'd have to order from one of their distributors closest to my location (bodykits.net). I told him I wasn't sure if they still made them due to rumors on the net but he told me they make and sell them ALL THE TIME and these kinds of rumors are hurting the business.Maybe to help them out we could make a thread with a list of places to buy xenon lips from? On bodykits.net it goes for $357.61 SHIPPED!Hope this helps others who are looking for one and don't want to get ripped off buying one used for MORE than retail because they think they're discontinued (I've seen this happen several times).

Good job! It's usually the shipping that makes th price skyrocket...

If they sell so many, I wonder why I don't see more of them on the road? Hell I've never even seen one IRL...

UPDATE: ireceived the xenon 2009 parts catalog, application guide and price sheets, and the rear lip is not listed at all, i called XENON to confirm and they have discontinued the rear lip some years ago...........the only lips that the y have for the S13 are #5251: air dam for 89-90 240sx and #5351 : air dam for 91-94 240sx, hope this info helps anyone.........the hunt for the rear lip continues............

This is one of the oldest threads that shows up in my recent topics.... it simply never dies

Post by **adrianfromthecastle** » Sun Aug 09, 2009 5:34 am

I'm getting tired of my lip... esp now theres more people rocking em now, lol

btw... yah, urethane doesn't crack... but after like 3 years of daily driving it slammed in southern california, the ends eventually grind down. I mean, I'm not surprised that it does, but it's not that very appealing, lol. And I don't even know if urethane is repairable..?

as soon as i decide to go lower up front, I'm getting rid of it. No lip FTW

I'd like to know what to expect...

Got a website or link so we're not left wondering if we've just given our billing info to some random phone # we found online?

So I have been looking everywhere for the front lip, damn near impossible to find. Does anyone know where they are sold or where I can get one?

Post by **SolaraOnBronze** » Thu Nov 12, 2009 8:30 am

I was in touch with speed alliance at the start of the year about getting one and they still could for $375 shipped with a 2-4 week wait. I would give them a try...

Post by **Lunchboxboy3** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 7:47 am

See you there then.

Post by **Lunchboxboy3** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 7:49 am

I have been talking to a guy who manufactures special exterior parts. He is willing to make a Xenon styled lip as long as I can find enough buyers. I know its almost impossible to find that lip for cheap. This is what he has told me:Here's what I normally do for group buys such as this:- Need 20 buyers- $20 nonrefundable deposit will need to be submitted from all 20 buyers, which will go towards the final price.- I will start prototyping (unless you have an original piece I can use), which will take 2 weeks.- After prototyping, I will provide pictures for approval on the car- Mould development will begin, which takes another 1 1/2 weeks

Carbon version: $270 + shippingFiberglass version: $200 + shipping

Not too sure how much shipping will be until I measure the lip.

Please let me know if you are interested, this is an amazing deal as long as I can find buyers. The website is jdpengineering.com if you want to see previos products he has made. I have heard no complaints and hear that he makes amazing parts.

Attention lip whores... XENON never went away...
