Right so I won this on ebay, and it looks bloomin fantastic... only problem is the fit is terrible.

It doesn't fit right on either side well and the angle is off.

However, with a little modification, this will look fantastic I'm sure.

It's this one: http://www.madmotors.co.uk/seibon-lexus-...t-lip.html

I want £50 for it. Collected preferred, but can deliver at cost.

Best way to get it fitted would probably be to put both the lip and bumper in an oven to soften them up and then fit it while they are more flexible.

Shame it won't be going on your Lex though, I was looking forward to seeing it.

But for £50 that will be gone in no time I'm sure Smile

It is a real shame as it is a really nice bit of carbon. I just can't bring myself to give it the work it needs to fit - which to be honest probably isn't a lot.

It's a steal at £50 though - even if you chop, bond and paint it as a quick fix - it's still cheaper than buying a TRD lip from Lexus and getting it painted and it will look different to 99% of the IS200's you see.

Plus, buying it will earn me brownie points from the missus, as it's currently sat in the living room and she wants it gone :laugh:

I like the look of that. The fit on my TTE bumper would probably be even worse though!

Are you absolutely sure that Seibon lip is made for the IS200? I've got a feeling that all Seibon 1st gen IS parts are made for the US spec IS300. They've got larger front and rear bumpers over there.

Quite possibly, but I haven't hidden the fact that the fit is poor.

Still a bargain though!
