Default Vertex Replica Lip for 09-10

Anyone know where to get a replica Vertex front lip for 09-10 or rep side skirts?

I know Nextmod sells them but they currently stopped selling them due to fitment issues, even though I know reps will have some sort of fitment issues (which I dont mind).


Another option would be buying a 06-08 rep off ebay and trying to make it fit. Would there be any MAJOR issues fitment wise? Anything minor should be no problem.

Nextmod still sell it, one member here (suxe----) something has the side skirts and the fitment is spot on
Other than that I have not found any other reliable sources unless someone has confirmed fitment from a certain ebay vendor

Ive been in constant contact with Nextmod for the past 2 days. They stopped selling their front lips because of fitment issues

I can still get the sides from them (I think) but nobody on ebay sells a vertex rep front lip for 09-10. I looked through EVERY LISTING.

Im curious to see how hard it would be for a shop to make a 06-08 vertex lip fit on a 09-10

Oh, the front is pretty bad then. I feel you man, it's hard for 09 lol....only one I found so far that I actually like is Lexon but it's like $1000 and no replicas lol
Not liking the JP anymore so going to run no-kit 'til I figure something out.

No, normally the fitment is fine. But they insist that its not good enough to sell

There are wald, ings, myride, etc replicas on ebay for 09-10 but no vertex

I found an authentic vertex for ~$600 shipped but I dont want an authentic lip thats going to get scrapped and scratched

The INGS don't look good though..it's not really INGS that's why I didn't go for it
MyRide has horrible fitment.......and not digging the style
I may consider getting Wald front and rear after I get coils...too high don't look good right now

I think Ive seen a few INGS that look good. As long as fitment isnt a major issues, a body shop can make it fit.

I used to want it but now decided to go Vertex. Just my luck

I'm curious also to see how hard it would be to make the 06-08 vertex lip fit on a 09-10.
I was thinking even mold it but seen some molded and IMO it looks really bad.
For the price of the rep seen them going for $108 shipped some days on sale it may be worth a shot.

Exactly. Normally theyre around $120 on ebay which isnt bad at all

I can get an authentic vertex lip for ~$600ish but I dont want an authentic lip that is going to get scrapped and scratched.

I found it on luxurymods website. I emailed them directly and quoted me $635 shipped.

VIPAutoSalon also sells it for $598 shipped but I wouldnt trust them after their recent disputes with a few customers
