Someone should really make an interesting S4 lip.
S4 owners are desperate people!
I can predict a massive sale.
Ow, here is the 626 lip; from THIS THREAD]

The white TII used to be eriksseven's car... it's now owned by me. He did the install on the S13 lip. It appears to be held into place by a couple screws in the bottom wheel well/fender area... don't know if it's secured any place else because I haven't fooled with it. It looks pretty good, but it has clearance problems... scrapes quite a bit. I'll probably remove it someday for the OEM or Mazdaspeed look. Erik is an innovator kind of guy though... search for his name and you'll find some pretty decent stuff.

Don't forget that 5one5 Innovations is currently working on two different S4 lips. And their prices are VERY competitive. Keep an eye out for pics and upcoming sales of these lips. The owner of that shop is really putting a lot of effort into these lips because he owns an S4 and got tired of never being able to find a lip for it.

CLS, that's good to hear. 5one5 is a great shop with excellent customer service. I have bought every product that they have made so far and don't have a single complaint.

And yes, I will shamelessly post my favorite pic of your car.
And a better shot of the near perfect fitment of the S13 lip.

I like the S13 lip, but there's just something about how it flares out in the top middle of the lip that bothers me. Other then that it looks good. And to whichever one of you two owns that white TII now, GREAT looking car!

you dont realize that it takes money for them to make a quality part. Pay for space to store it in and so on.
don't be so dense.

I pulled off a 626 lip last time i was at the junkyard and test fitted it to an FC, it was about 1 inch short at the wheel well and looked like crap imho. Still trying to find an s13 lip and see how that fits.

the lip only came on 89 models ( pignose bumper ) (maybe 90?!?)
and around here atleast, they are VERRY hard to get ahold of.
and if you buy from someone who knows what it is, expect to pay easily over 100$
