Time to make your own.

If that lip is cheap, its cool. If its a couple hundred bucks, it's better to just buy a whole bumper.

Try here : Courtesy Nissan

My Chrome Valve Cover : You should be able to get it done at any customizing shop. Look in the yellow pages for Automobile stuff. Should cost you around $75 plus your valve cover.

Maybe someone took it oof.Because every se i've seen had it,and every non se didn't.But why not buy the r33 front spoiler,it looks better,and it comes with a front lip.Costs about $300.

I would like to get a body kit or just the front to a body kit (only temorarily) but I don't want to have to pay to paint it, and have to get it matched up.Josh

Probably the best front lip I've seen was on Russ's car....Shawn pointed it to me at the Melbourne car show. It looks really clean and did a good custom job.

hey bro,I've seen that Greddy lip around before, and it's nice. But it doesn't quite have the same look as the one in my link.

I couldn't find the lip on the nissan motorsports page either. If it is in fact a factory lip for thr SE, then it should be pretty cheap to find.

Quote »but I don't want to have to pay to paint it[/quote]see that's the thing about a lip; you don't have to paint-match it. You can even buy a new hood to match the lip and it'd look tight...get the bomex unibrow 2nd gen s14 cover and you're set with a pretty nice looking front end.

Russ, where you at when we need you?

Best bet, go to a salvage yard and get one thats already painted your color.

That is the front LIP SPOILER. If it were the bumper cover, it would say: Front Bumper Cover.

It doesn't say lip anywhere.It sais front bumper kit.Besides unless it's made out of gold it ain't worth 400 bucks.

I think there's Z Car of Atlanta and a Pull-a-Part place up on Buford Hwy. Other than that, I'd post a wanted ad up on http://www.240sx.org

I have the front lip on my SE, but it's black, not body-colored like the cars in the Atl site pic.

I'll have to do more research into this area.

You most likely won't find a good lip at a junkyard, I tried. It costs that much because it is OEM. At the dealership by me it was 280 for the lip. I ended up with a Greddy.
