WTB- Nice GS lip to make a mold, TO make more!!!

Post by 92gsrtwinturbo »

Like it says, I need a nicer IE non broken set,
GS style lip,
I either will buy it for a reasonable price or borrow for a few months
due to it will take time to make the mold while I am not working at my real job,

thanks,
Jesse :D

Ya know, I was just thinking the same thing the other day...
these are near impossible to find (especially undamaged)and many people still want one...no, sorry I don't have a good specimen to offer, I had to settle on one with about half of the mount strip part busted off the back on one side, so I'm gonna have to improvise...but that's just it, I couldn't FIND any more GS lips anyplace!

yeah so I probly wasn't the one to do anything but think about the idea anyway :) ...I wish you good luck on this anyway though. Are you gonna make em out of urethane like the originals?

-well the mold will be out of a silicon rubber with a fiberglass mother shell, the first will be strait up Hand laid Fiberglass, if those go well I may do some out of urethane, but we will see, :wink:

O' the dealer has 9 available in the us, but cost $285 for the set, and may be harder to get then just that. according to the parts guy, he also wasnt sure if that was both sides, it is listed as two separate parts
(for the $285 a side mind you...I called corksport, they said " according to the Mazda parts guy he called it is a sold as a set." for the above listed price,

so I am still looking for a set, and in reply to REPO,
I will Buy yours and pay shipping on yours) if it is the drivers side you have,) then send you yours back and give you a newly molded one for a discounted price :wink:
anyway let me know...

Thanks,
Jesse

Hm, how long would you need to "borrow" them for?

I have a red '94 GS and I think the lips on mine are pretty much mint condition..... I'd like to help you out if this means cheap good quality lips for the rest of the guys on the board... I just don't want to lose my lips for too long.
