Bienvenido a fitfreak Carnage Himura, como indican los otros lamentablemente no va a servirle el lip de la gd3 pero si le va la de gd1. Si no me equivoco los autos de Mexico son estilos europeos no estilos estados unidos asi que lo mas probable te conviene buscar te conviene buscar piesas de los eudm no usdm.

Ok translation time
Welcome to fitfreak Carnage Himura. As the others are saying the gd3 lip won't fit the gd1 model you have. If I'm not mistaken the Mexican cars are European style so you might want to look into eudm parts rather than usdm parts.

Sorry for all that btw guys if you ever need a Spanish English translator feel free to ask

The USDM GD3 Front/Rear lips are based off of the GD1 Front/Rear Lips. The reason the USDM lip wont fit your bumper is because it is longer. The JDM GD1 came with a Lip kit that looks exactly the same as the USDM GD3. You might want to try tracking one of those down.

I'm in Zacatecas, Mexico, jejeje, in the center... we are too far, but maybe we can make bussiness, only a few questions:

1. Exactly, Where in California do you live??
2. Price of the Lip!?
3. Can you post a photo of it??

I had (like the 99% of the mexicans XD) family en CA maybe some of they can pick up the lip ^^

I know where Zacatecas is, my family is from Aguascalientes.

I live in the riverside area.
Price of lip is $300 and it is brand new. I paid $450 * shipping and it came out to about $550.
This is what the lip looks like, it is a spoon sports carbon fiber lip:

Wow!! Thats Great! and the price is excellent, but, I need to be honest, I've thinking in something more cheap , but I keep that in mind, maybe I can make a litle Freelace configurations (I work as a Virtualization Manager) I can achieve it ^^, Thank's a Lot!
