Just got the AC front lip...
IMO it looks great. But the full front bumper looks better tho. Even tho the full front bumper is double the price, but its worth it especially if you plan on getting rid of the SC later. The lip is glued on and theres no chance of me being able to take it off nicely....plus paint etc... you guys know what i mean.
The pics are in the gallery, but i dont know why my camera is so sh!tty. I have a fujifilm 1.3MP digicam. Not the greatest but i expected the pics to be better than that! Its all fuzzy and ****. the pic was taken in a underground parking lot. Any photography hints? I used flash for the pics i took. Should i have left it on 'no flash'? Thanks.

Looks NICE!
The reason why your photos are so blurry is because you are NOT holding the camera steady. In that lighting situation, the camera needs to hold the "iris" open longer...if you get a tripod or something else to hold the camera steady (and then use the auto timer feature to take the photo...it's a "quick fix" way to get a "remote trigger"...)
Try a box or chair or another car or just something to rest the camera on...set your auto timer...aim the camera, push the button...you should have like 10 seconds to "adjust" the camera's aim in case you pushing the button moved it (that's what a "remote trigger" eliminates...something from the film camera days)

Thanks Manaray for the photography tips. I didnt know you needed a steady hand to take pics. And i thought i had steady hands...

I emailed AC and they told me to call this place:
EZERNET INC. (Auto Couture North America)
7671 Woodwind Drive, Huntington Beach

The front and rear lips are in stock and can be shipped out immedieatly. The full front and rear bumper covers aren't in stock and you'll have to wait for AC of Japan to make it and send it out. You can have it shipped by air but that'll cost ya 600-1000bucks...i forgot which, but by container is free. So thats why theres such a long wait.
If your interested, i have a rear lip that i want to return. Ezernet Inc said they cant give me a refund but they can credit me. IMO the rear lip doesnt look that great. I really dont like the part where the lip ends and you can see a 'gap' across the rear bumper. Of course you can get the rear lip moulded onto the bumper, but you might as well get the full rear bumper then. If you really are interested in the AC front lip or any parts from AC, shoot me a pm and i'll send my rear lip back to AC and for credit under your name+a discount.

Tiger - kits come usually in two configurations...one is called a "lip" kit (or "add-on" kit) and the other is a "full replacement"...
The difference is that a lip/add-on kit is a small bottom spoiler that attaches to your stock front bumper (or rear bumper). Whereas a full replacement competely replaced the front bumper (or the rear) with a new unit.
The AutoCouture kits for the SC are available with either a full replacement front bumper or a add-on lip. The full replacement looks a little different from the stock+lip. Check out their site...

Some kits (like the AutoCouture kit for the older SC) LOOKS like a add-on lip (on a '97+ SC bumper) but it's actually a full replacement...
