Not to be too critical, but the factory lip usually is a perfect fit on a vehicle that has the front bumper adjusted properly, and the flared ends are supposed to be a very tight fit, and go up and around the fenders.

Are you guys getting them from a local dealer or getting them from an online dealer?

Help me here guys. I am an original owner of a 88TII. The lower lip shown is not how I received my car. My car had a three piece lip, a thin piece that didn't extend to either end of the bumper with "aero" pieces that at the ends flared down like the ones in front of the rear tires. The lip shown looks like something from one of the other models. I need something myself, the "aero" pieces came apart a few years ago and the center piece is now in tatters. This looks pretty good, but I didn't want to pay $300. Are Mazda dealers really selling these as OEM for TIIs ?
My parts guy told me about a year ago that there wasn't anything available.

You have an S4 86-88 and S5 is 89-91 which is whats pictures above, whole front bumper is different, as is the lips, and alot of both styles cars didnt come with lips too, you can search and maybe find a nice lip for an S4 but its hard, i just changed my front bumper to a newer one, but then the trim dont match, so just research it more if you wanta do all the work to convert to an S5 bumpers and trim, or look for awhile and find an S4 lip

im keeping my eye open for the new s4 5one5 lip
apparently it will be loosely based off of the Feed lip for s5's...so nice and discrete.
hopefully we'll be hearing something about it in the coming weeks!!

Haven't we ALL heard this
I like the look of the FEED lip. From the front that is....
However, when you look at the sideprofile it hangs down so much lower than the stock side sill trim.
It makes it look silly.

88and93, like str8ballin said... 5one5 will have a very nice front lip designed for S4 FC's available for purchase in a month or so. That is our number 2 priority right behind the vented hood for the FC. Feel free to PM me if you have any further questions.
