If they did Post FL versions I would have gone there for sure.

I got mine from Ultrex. Fits ok, but doesnt look as nice as the OTRM versions.

OTR motorsport does both pre and post facelift front lips.

I just installed a post facelift onto my wagon. Fitment and quality is pretty good. Fitment required a few extra screws to help it fit tight. Prices is great at $220.

How flexible is the lip?
I'm pretty keen to get one, but not if it's going to explode if I go down an aggressive gutter or driveway.

As you may know the lip is PU plastic so its nice and flexible. Will handle more abuse than hard plastic or fiberglass obviously, as long as its mounted well. I used plenty of self tapping screws as well as the supplied mounting points.

The lips all have holes that align up with the front bumper so you just screw it into place.
Double-sided tape and tech screws also help to make sure it's really on there
Took me about an hour all up to install.

I was actually about to get one through OTR when a good condition STI lip came up for sale on here so I pulled the trigger and snapped it up.
Have heard good things about the OTR too though, can't really go wrong at $220.

I've seen it on the site looks nice, but i cant seem to find anyone with a 3.0R B with the OTR lip on. Ive seen the ultrex but not OTR
DO you know anyone that has one ?? Probably would rather OTR too cause im from melbourne haha :P

I haven't seen one with them on but I did speak to the guys at OTR when I was looking for front lips and they said they have fitted one to a spec b and it is the right length and everything just has a slight gap that the official sti lips don't have, supposedly only noticeable from underneath the car. They'll be happy to line it up and show you a rough idea on how it looks on the car.

wondering if it possible to fit a post-facelift lip on a pre-facelift Liberty? much prefer the look of that lip to the pre-facelift one because of the slight flare on the sides.
