Default Re: Brand new front lip for the xfire...

Well, a few months ago I got the bug again and decided I wanted to take another shot at it, but they were on back order AGAIN. So I Googled the part number and found them all over the place priced as high as $135. Incidentally, it seems that in Spain you can pick these up all day long at any SEAT dealer for about $24. Anyway.....

I found a VW/Audi parts place that was just about extinct, and they showed one in stock and a price of $75. I emailed, they responded, I met the person who had been running the site until the economy darn near killed them and payed cash for their last piece.

It's on the car now and looks great....... I just haven't had time to get any decent pix of it. Maybe this weekend though.

Forum member H82BL8 has a nice write up at https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...-phat-lip.html that I used as a guide to install mine.
Not that cheap, but I bought one for $118 delivered:

SEAT CUPRA R LIP SPOILER (OEM) | eBay

It's sitting in the garage, waiting for the 'effing heat to lessen...

BTW-this is OEMplus. I spoke to them.
