budget front bumper work, molded lip for the f50

there are jdm kits that cost 3-5 grand for the whole kit. bumpers alone cost anywhere from 700 and over. i bought this front lip hoping it would be a direct fit, turned out it wasnt so i went to the bodyshop and had it molded with the bumper. what do you guys think?

Looks good,

I would have had the two sections were it meets in the middle molded perfectly so it was a smooth transition from the lip to the bumper and the "fog light" area cut and molded to follow the exact shape of the opening.

can anyone post some pics of the wald lip? i searched but only found a black f50 with one but it's not that clear. and no this is a replica lip i found somewhere on the internet i was hoping for it would bolt on directly but it didn't. waited 3 weeks for it to arrive too.

i put "budge bumper work" on the title because the total i spent was around 800. compared to the jdm front bumpers out there this option was cheaper.

maybe should have saved the money to put into a full kit like Wise Sport or Impul... Those are more "sporty". Impul makes a stroker kit too for the F50.

replica of what? if it is a replica wald then it is for a jdm bumper. I think the JDM stock bumper is similar to the JDM but just shorter.
