Well, after how many months of searching around with the most remote dealers, distributors, and speed shops in Korea, my guys over there finally found someone who actually has the front lips IN STOCK! I know you all have asked me time and time again to get these for you, but that was shot down when GT Tech went out of business (and failed to answer any e-mails or calls before closing their doors).
Anyhow, what I'm looking to find out is if I should actually import these or not?
Think a GB is warranted? If so, can we get 10 orders to make it as affordable as possible?
Off the top of my head, I'm thinkin' that they'd retail for $300-$350...pretty much the same as any other Hyundai front lip.

I'd be all up on it myself.
Get the back of it coated in bedliner to make it more durable, and just attach it to the front bumper FTW.
Keep me informed, I'd for sure get the lip.

What about the interest for these? I have a bodykit shipment leaving next week and can probably fit one or two front lips inside. However, if there's enough interest for me to get 10-15 of these, then I can import them in their own shipment.
It's a front lip....not a bumper

glad to hear you guys located these.. this is the SINGLE best front bumper look for the rd2 IMO. only thing that would make it nicer is a bit bigger front opening for a nice IC.

Italia, import one or 2 ASAP with your other one, then, with a review by someone, say me, you can sell the rest in a group buy.

Yea, I'm gonna get one or maybe two if they can fit it inside with the bodykit. In the meantime, I'd like to see what kinda interest we have around here.
