Nothing really exists...There are a few things you could make work though
-Aussie kit, I believe just sideskirts and add ons for the rear bumper, will be expensive though.
-06 lips, specifically the V Limited can be modified, but you could probably modify most. Replica V limited can be had for ~$60
-Home Depot garage door seal, ~$10
-Aussie aftermarket front lips, again with the expensive, I believe they're custom too. www.rslibertyclub.org

+1 for the garage door seal. :) If you take your time installing it, it looks the shit, and you don't have to worry about breaking it on curbs. Check out Ebay for pictures of this stuff used as lips... but buy it from HD or Lowes.

Yes. Do not buy it on ebay, they charge out the ass(comparatively), and all they do is buy it from HD or Lowes anyway

Mine's kinda wavy because the washers I used were too small, so it started to come loose in spots, but you get the idea. Also I believe the corner and middle are falling off in this pic, probably from driving through bushes at the rally :lol:

It's rolled up in a plastic bag if you go to the actual store, you really won't have many(any?) options there. I have to by another one soon so I'll get you a pic if you don't find one already.

Actually here it is on ebay, at $30, hence us saying buy it from the hardware store. The double sided tape + screws thing doesn't seem like a bad idea though, hmmm....

Oh ok I looked and there was like 10 or 15 different ones. I was surprised. But if you get some new stuff a pic would be nice. Not in a huge hurry to put it on my car it's still cold here an I'm painting the bottom half of my bumpers black. So it's gotta warm up enough for that first. Haha I really like it on your car tho it looks awesome! You think you could put that stuff on te back bumper too?

I myself was going to get a ebay STi front lip, they look pretty good i think and are cheap. I planned on using Outback sideskirts, they need a little trimming and usually have to be held on by double sided 3m tape but they look good. There is a guy on here with a sweet satin black ss that used a Prelude rear lip i believe, that looks really good, it had to be cut it too. So, really it depends on how much time you want to put into it.

check out bmxkelowna's build threads in the Picture and Multimedia Gallery forum he has a full kit on his drift car peiced together from various cars

one model of 94 wagon came with factory side skirts and rear lip in the U.S. so if you are crazy lucky you may be able to find them used

my dealer was able to get factory part numbers for the lips and said he could order them new but are pricey as all hell....i still may order them
