WTB: Vorsteiner or Vorsteiner-Style Lip (non-Carbon Fiber version?)

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
I'm looking for a gently-used Vorsteiner or Vorsteiner Style front lip for the F10; I have a project that I could use this on.

I would prefer a non-CF version (CF is fine too), not too beaten up.
Major scuffs underneath are fine, minor scuffs at the top are OK.
Minor cracks may be OK too, but it depends on where they're at.

Please PM me with pictures of what you have and what you're asking for it.
I would prefer this come from someone in southern CA so that I can inspect it in person as well as avoid shipping costs.

Here's your chance to clear out your garage of a damaged lip and get some $$ for it!

Thank you folks!

I guess I'm willing to consider ones from outside of CA as well.

Please let me know what you've got.
Thanks!

Does anyone know of a better way to get the attention of people with Vorsteiner-Style lips?

At this rate, I may not even be able to get my project off the ground.
Please help.

I've seen ones for $90 on up to $300.

I'm only in need of a fiberglass or ABS version, but want one that actually fits well.

Do you know of any particular ebay seller that has a decently fitting V-Style lip?

Thanks.

Can I ask what project you are trying to do? This could help me recommend a lip for you.

I don't know of any particular seller. But I got my Vorsteiner replica from a forum seller here for $300 (shipped from China). Fitment is about 97%. But for a fraction of the price of the Vorsteiner diffuser, I can't complain.

That's exactly what I'd like to do...getting from a forum member.

I already know that I like the Vorsteiner type look.
The project I'm looking to do is designing and fabricating additional elements to that basic lip (for my personal use - of course).

That's why I don't want something NEW, but rather used and cheap.

I bought a frp lip from 4amotors on ebay. Haven't installed it yet but its good fitment when holding it against the car. Some areas are very thin though and its showing signs of cracks when flexing it (in red). This area shouldn't flex much once its on the car though.

I'm still looking for a used Vorsteiner (or replica) front lip. Damaged ones are OK. Please send me pics of what you got. Thanks!
