Default 2 questions about Sunline front lip.

1. Where can i buy the authentic lip from Japan. I tried to google this but I cannot find a result with an authentic seller in Japan, only results from US seller.

US shipping is too much for me

2.
If I buy a 2009-2012 replica, is it possible to have it modified/moulded to fit a 2013+ Z?

Reason for number 2. Is I can buy the 2009-2012 replica front lip directly from here in Aus really cheap, I think only approx $250AUD. I don't mind spending a little bit extra to try and get it fitted on a 2013+.

It may be cheaper than buying from fly1 and paying $500 USD for a fly1 lip and another $650 for shipping.

We don't have any sellers here for a 2013+ lip in Aus.

Answer to #2. Anything can be done for enough money. carlitos_370z had a '09 lip made to fit the newer bumper, but I do not know at what cost. Labour could be cheaper in Puerto Rico.

very nice, but i thought his lip was from fly1. So I thought his was already the 2013+ version.

NVM, I guess it is possible. Next problem is if I could find anyone here in Adelaide, Australia to do it.

You can buy directly from Sunline's website. There's RHDJapan.com or Japanparts.com Also, there is an Aussie distributor JSAI AERO. So many bro.

Sounds like a great plan!

The sunline kit is the most common lip kit that is copied out there. Everyone makes it. Save your money by getting a rep especially if you will hack it to fit your '13 but if your heart is set on it, get it from Sunline Racing or the other two I mentioned above.

Here is their site: Sunline Racing Japan

RHD Japan may not have it on their listing but if you send them an email, they will locate it for you and give you a price. I inquired about Weber Sports and asked for pricing when they did not have it on their website. They responded quickly with their prices shipped and had it listed on their website the following day.

Good luck.

they'll fit, he just won't believe us

they might be fitted on his car and he still won't be sure if they fit
