Demonspeed...





ISC...





I know you don't want to hear a rant but don't bother with them. Is he even still in business? For a time I was sponsored by them and we had a good thing going. Then, like so many other people, I got dicked.

ISC is a reputable company that makes a superior product.

You know if someone just made a filler for that hole, across the front, it would look like it belongs there.

Shine or someone... are you listening??

I don't like that deamonspeed lip.
It looks weird. I have plenty of pictures tha I collected because I wanted a lip for my S4. But I changed my mind after looking at so many of them got really ugly.
I really like the feed/odula looking one. Even a replica will suffice.
I read somewhere here about this dud making them, but I don't know what happened. The dud also owned an S4. I havent found the feed/odula type for S4's yet. There are plenty of S4 owners that will buy them.

It's so sad that people insist on getting ripped off...

Hey, if you're giving away free money, send that **** to me!

Man, if you give them so much as a penny you're a FORKING IDIOT. I'm appalled that you would even consider the notion. Even though you say you're just asking for pics, that suggest intent to buy one. IT's about the same as asking for a pic looking down the barrel of a loaded shotgun, if you go for the real thing something bad will probably happen.

You say you know that they have a bad rep, but maybe you dont know just HOW bad and for HOW long. Let me help. They've been screwing people over since at least 2002.

https://www.rx7club.com/forum/search...archid=1629639

I seriously think that I am probably the only member to ever successfully buy (and receive) a lip from those people. And that was done only as COD.

That said, I have some pics on one of my old cars, but black on black doesnt exactly show up too well for clarity's sake.

Making a lip that looks decent on S4s is tough and takes a looooong time.

Trust me

this is the first time ive seen the pics and thats exactly what i was thinkin. Is it the feed lip that matchs the S5 center hole? If this lip was matched to the ends of the center bumper hole you could cut away all that extra materialand put a mesh behind it, much like a odula style.

I have one from Demospeed, but I was one of the lucky few to actually receive one.
Later, when I needed a replacement, I also got ripped off.

The hole is there for a reason. In my case, it provides fresh air to the radiator below the ic. Of course I have mine all boxed in and sealed behind the lip and it works great. I also cut out the lower prtion of the stock bumper to increase the overall opening to allow for even more airflow. This way it looks better too by appearing as if it belongs there.

The opening could easily be glassed in by anyone if desired. It does look funny with the opening if just attached to the stock unmodified bumper.

DO NOT do business with these ******* people. They will rip you off and there are countless stories about them.

There is an alternative out there now. Someone copied there lip and is reproducing it. It costs a bit more but at least you'll get what you paid for.

Yeah thats an alternative, but its 310 not 170. And I dont even like the demonspeed the way it is and would modify it. And I knew the demonspeed was cheap, but I didnt really know what it looked like.

I dought I will buy from them because their rep is so bad. I just want a simple lip for not much money that fits an s4. Some one needs to make one.What I really like is the Mazdaspeed one, but thats only s5. Some one make something similar to that. I know a few people on the forum are making lips of their own, and might sell them, but ive never seen them.

EDIT: RX-Heven, your car is sick. Big PROPS.
