Default front lip spoiler

I saw this picture in the gallery....the front lip must be just a bolt on piece. Does anyone know where i can find this? i have been looking for something exactly like this for some time and i cant find one anywhere. If anyone has info on this please tell me, thanks.

I tried to find "pront" as you said, but like you could not track anything down. Does anyone know of any lip spoiler that may be similar to this one, i know stuff like this is hard to find, but someone must know of something like this. Or does anyone have any other ideas for an exterior mod. Thanks...

i am trying to find one also
so far all are custom made #'s
there is one that one member put on a few weeks ago it looked nice curved to the lines
but not what i am looking for
i am getting an m5 spoiler shipped from germany
should be here soon and i am going to work it to mould to the lines of the body
especiallly since the 5 series trunk is much smaller
all depends on time and effort + money you feel like wasting

Try out this web site. I bought one for my ex-97' ES 300 and had to make a little modification to install it.

The US version o fthe bumpers are 1" bigger in size, therefore the to lips in the middle would not reach if installed over the lower portion on OEM bumper. Therefore I mount it under the OEM lower bumper, which gives a lower look as well.

Hey nima, the front lip on your '97 ES looks awesome! It's not often that I see 2nd-gen ES with cosmetic mods (well one time in the NYC/NJ border where I saw a '00-'01 white ES with sideskirts). I love the mesh-looking grille in the bumper area, and the way you maintain the gills on both ends of the grille. One question... are those Coach Edition badges I see on your ES?
