Eh. I'll just do without haha.

 

Previous owner was pretty hard on my front lip, and as such has a couple cracks underneath and the paint is awful. Anyone have a line on a good quality aftermarket one? Or should I pull the stock one and repair/respray?

 

Buy a bayson r lip and then have your original repaired and painted at the same time. Backup! Or sell one.. you never know when you'll fck one up so might as well have a spare.

 

Sounds great, but the only Bayson R lip I can find is $1k on ebay. Any other source for these? Earlier in the thread someone said they talked to Bayson and these are no longer produced...

 

Can you post the link please ?

I have been been in touch with Bayson r and they told me there was no more stock and are not sure of when they will get anymore.

(also fwiw, all you have to do is google "bayson r ap1 front lip" and it comes up)

 

I was searching on eBay and wasn’t getting it to come up. Doesn’t come up on Canadian site I’m guessing. That’s crazy pricing. On bayson site it’s $50

 

They priced it like that so nobody buys one, but they get to keep the listing up so they don't pay a new fee if/when they get more in. If you are dumb enough to purchase for that price you'll get a message apologizing that they don't have it.

Is anyone aware of another similar-quality equivalent? I much prefer the look of the AP1 + oem lip over any other options, but AP1 sans lip is kinda blah. I'd like to avoid going with AP2 bumper.

 

Repair it!
When I bought my S2000 8 years ago it came with a pretty banged up lip spoiler. Most of the attachment points underneath were ripped off and the lip spoiler came off the car in two pieces. I completely rebuilt it, was a fun little project. I ended up buying the paint supplies from this place https://www.automotivetouchup.com. Perfect match ( Berlina black). I had that lip spoiler on my car for 4 years without any issues but then decided to get a Seibon carbon fiber lip spoiler. I have the original lip spoiler in storage, just in case.

 

Bayson R has AP1 front lips back in stock !
