WTB: Bugeye front lip/spoiler

Had a little incident in Tahoe this weekend, busted up my replica V1 lip. It's fiberglass, so maybe it can be fixed, but since I'm going in for body work covered by insurance anyway, I wanted to see if anyone had a bugeye lip for sale. Prefer V1 or V2 lips, or even Prodrive or Greddy, real or replica it doesn't matter to me. Trying to source this local before braving the wilds of the nasioc classifieds. Will i-club come through for me again?

Oh, forgot to add that I remember SubyDude had replica lips for bugeyes a few years ago. Anyone know if any local shops might still have some laying around?

Thanks,
Andrew

Sorry, I don't have a lip, but do you still have your busted up lip? If all the pieces are there, are you willing to sell that? Haha.

nope sorry. I've only had a v1 replica that hit a rabbit and I'm rockin an oem lip now. The v1 replica would slide up and down if you scraped, which scratched the front where it touched.

I recently bought a prodrive and 04-05 v- limited replica lips, the prodrive is an okay fit, mine was pretty tight, but with enough screws in the right places it went on just fine.

from what i have heard the replica prodrives are being made with the exact mold as the originals, as most even have the name prodrive on them.

Cool, thanks everyone. I'll keep an eye out for the replica Prodrive lips. I really want a new v1 or v2 lip, but I think I may have sourced a Greddy lip too. Please let me know if anyone hears about a place selling the v1/v2 lips.

I have all the pieces, but I was going to play around with it instead of selling it or trashing it. If it sits in the corner taking up space too long though, you can have first dibs on it. No money, just pick up. I'll let you know

Thanks! Yah, I want to test out my skills with fiberglass and bondo. I'd definitely be down to take it off your hands some time in the future if it's just collecting dust.

Good luck finding a lip!

The replica prodrive lips look pretty good. How did you pick one up for?

If this is a question for me..a guy in the sac area was selling lips off CL. Paid 90 for the prodrive, 80 for the v-limited, but as you can see in the pic the v limited is deformed in the middle a little
