Ola guys. Just an update on the VST lip. The lip was constructed... then deconstructed. Our friend Ken is a perfectionist, and he's trying to get even more of a flair on the sides, while keeping the lines across the front more true to the 850R bumper (they were more curvey due to the V70R design). We should be doing the resin this weekend, and hopefully have more prototype pics to show you soon.

Sorry for it taking so long, it's pretty tough to find the time between Ken and I to get everything happening. But indeed it will happen.

we don't want to know the detail between ken and your private lives. ;) any chance the lip can modified to fit my v70r?

For you? Nooooo way!

For other people? I'm not sure how different the new V70R bumper is from the old. I think it's pretty different. Go and visit Ken once the fibreglass version is finished and try it on your car.

@<<<DR850R>>>

Where can I get headlights, grille, and side markers like that on your 850?

Sweet!

Thanks

Hi UncleBoost,

The Headlights and Side Markers can be found at www.vptuning.com . I'm not sure if the side markers are listed on the site, but I know that George (the owner there) has them. The grille is an IPD black mesh grille, found at www.ipdusa.com . You can also pick up the little R badge if you wanted from them as well. Hope that helps~

Alright, I went down to Gemini yesterday and they tried to fit the lip onto my stock S70 bumper.

Well, it didn't quite work out, as the bottom of the bumper is not flat, so it'll be really hard to mount. Marc has ideas in his head on how to mount it, but he's not so sure yet. He is going to wait till I switch to the R bumper so that he can use my stock bumper and work on it.

Stay tuned.

thats weird, cause we took that lip and put it on my bumper and it worked great, takes some minor trimming... but it'd work.
