99 front bumper with lip

jsut wondering i saw a pic the other day and it looked to be the 99 spec bumper but the lip was built into the bumper. i know i have seen some ppl paint the lip the same color as the bumper but this didnt look like it. any hwlp would be appreciated as i am looking to buy a bumper.

May possibly be molded together. I have urethane welding/repair kit that I could use to do this. Still though, I'd rather leave it seperate so I could replace the lip as it gets scraped, etc. Also, I prefer it natural black. Looks to busy when painted.

You sure it wasn't that cheapie FG kit that looks like a plateless '99 only with a sort of veilside-ish lip integrated on it? I forget the brand...

I think you are talking about the older Peter Farrell Supercars front bumper, check the website @ pfsupercars.com, I think it still might be up on the site, not sure if they still sell them since Ray took over.

This guy knows what he's talking about... i would not mold it or get one of them intergrated lips as these lips do touch some of of those speed bumps from hell... here is a closer pic of mine... if i was to lower it anymore I'd hit everything on the road... plus parking becomes a bitch too...

I believe the bumper you're talking about is the Feed replica '99 front end. RotaryResurrection has a pic of his car with this bumper in his profile.
