My GS spoiler is still in tact. I have bumbed it once or twice pulling into driveways. I am the second owner of the car, don't know if it was ever repaired or replaced. <p>As far as new lip ideas, at the NY meet I saw a pic of blue mx-3 with a carbon fiber lip which had the race style metal tie downs, like seen on the BMW front lips made by AC Shcnitzer (spelling?) I like a lip like that. The lip should def be easlily removable. I know one of these winters or trips to NYC I am going to break my stock GS one.<p>Evan

I know that I'm taking up an old thread, but how is your project with the lip-spoiler ?

anything that protrudes off the front of the bumper too far looks ugly on teh Mx3. Take the combat chin spoiler fro fx designs. Yeah from a few angels it looks great, from the side? looks like a electric razor or snow plow, however you wish to see it...go for stock but a littel be ffier and a tad more aggressive...no wings or vents, please...hehe

Chins that stick out too far are too Gawdy for me. Barry, I like your Miata lip styled on, and the j-spec is my suggestion, but I'd definitely be in to by a Miata styled lip if it looks good. If you can, it would be cool if you could photoshop something with it on.

I was just going to repair my lip myself. Was gonna use some fiberglass cloth and soak it with plastic epoxy instead of fiberglass resin. :shrug:

Eunos style. No holes or vents. It will just weaken it. It also looks like a splitter too. :)

im diggin the miata one up top. that looks sweet.
for the rear....anything that gives a lowering affect, cut out for exhaust and perhaps allow us to keep the mudguards. i dont know why but i like those on the car. dont do it like onder-ground, id say smething like pakafier but perhaps a lil smaller of an opening.
i got a 90 pgt...but wish it was a mx-3 bp-t!
