Do annoy busted the m carbon lip today

PhatLyfe · 08-20-2021, 03:11 PM

Didn't see a triangular curb and finally busted the m carbon lip.

My choice going forward is the lightweight black or carbon lip.

Who sturdy lip like lightweight? Anybody has them in stock these days?

Last time I check with supreme was back ordered since June and no updates.

I need a lip as this one may just fall off and looks bad, I was able put it back in shape for a few days run, but won't stay like that.

All assistance appreciated in advance

We have an inbound Lightweight shipment with some lips still unspoken for. Let me know if you'd like one.

Definitely f-ed, but you might be able to epoxy it in the mean time to keep it together. Liberal use and let it cure overnight.

It's already broken from before this time is holding up again but I'll have to get underneath ans put a temp plate.

That sucks man. Take pictures of your fix if you do it. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I'm in your shoes.

Sure thing, I think one of the previous plates fell off today during the bucks county exotics Run today. It still hanging on so far. I'll need to plug another plate and some drywall screws . I'll take before and after pics. It not bad for a temp fix. But it's very common to break the front lip, met a guy today and he broke two do the indestructible lightweight lip. He mentioned the lips stay intact but the inner brackets break. So I'll need to research possible get a Ebay carbon knock off lip for cheap versus oem . At least odd Thursday break I won't feel bad as the kids $1600 replacement lip.

I’ve been in this position twice, after second lip wasn’t worth buying a 3rd to have it happen again. Ended up buying the lightweight lip. Couldn’t be happier, solid as can be without being scared to scrape it or hit something.

Nah, it happens a day before when I went out and didn't see the triangular curbs at exit at a mini mall, the plate I screwed on fell off on the last curve for the twisty road. It till be hopefully fixed this week and replaced when available in future.

It was a great time man, thanks for organizing, my son is looking forward to the next meet too.

On the bright side it saved your bumper by the time you heard it.

PhatLyfe · 08-24-2021, 02:35 PM

Fixed the lip today, picked up a flat plate and screw from Home Depot. Jacked up the car and did then eat as I could with assistance and gorilla tape and then epoxy the area.

It will hold up for now and for a while, I can get carbon fiber tape, but it's not necessary since I've broken this multiple times.

PhatLyfe · 08-25-2021, 12:10 PM

It's a temp fix till the unit is replaced , if you need what I used let me know.

The lip is hanging on by a thread. I personally would uninstall it until you have a replacement. If the temporary fix doesn't hold, you'll do more damage to your bumper if it fell/ripped off on the highway. You might even run it over and damage your wheels/tires, undercarriage or even worst an unsuspecting car on the road.

It holding on the side pretty solid just the center porting cracked, the metal plate is hold up very good. As I said I'm going replace with the lightweight lip once back in stock.
