it actually bolts up to the stock engine cover points (as you know it replaces the stock cover).. no tape.. so it's not a huge deal.. just a little heavier and bigger than the stock engine cover .. fit and finish is top quality of course..

There's a guy with a PPW Z here that has this lip too..

And I know this is bad but I'm contemplating changing my whole front end to authentic Amuse with the new Amuse lip lol **BUT** before i get 5000 PMs.. I'm keeping the the TS lip and stock bumper in case i destroy the Amuse front end..

Awesome pics Mike. Like I always tell you, your Z is one of my favorites. Its a shame you dont live out here in Cali! Oh, and its confirmed, the authentic Amuse kit IS here. The guy Im working has it in stock, Im trying to work out the pricing with him and see what we can do to make ths happen.

I want to thank Alberto for making that in bold because evertime i post pix of my car i get about 8-10 PMs about what lip i have lol ... this time there was only one PM

...and sometimes i think noobs get offended when i tell them top secret.. i think they don't realize that's the name of the brand and i'm not being an *** haha

Mike awesome car. How do you drive your car on the roads in Bean town? The front looks slammed. I am afraid for your seibon (j/k alberto and mike) front lip...

Again keep it up car looks amazing and you need some major coverage

I need to hold off on getting some stuff, because Christmas is gonna clean me out. But, again, I've been in so much situations where a super-wide would have been optimal.
