    zenki trueno lip fits welll to both zenki and kouki bars. infact, looks amazing on kouki bars.

    will find a link soon.



    this shows how to fit them, but there's an AE86 club video that also shows it, will try and dig it up.

    Cheers man that helped alot, i also have the 86 club dvds so i might dig them up and have another looksy.
    The only thing i dont like about it is on the side on view how the lip falls a little short of the edge of the bar,was thinking of trimming the bar back a little so it dont rub from the castor then i could possibly follow the that line down to where the lip finishes.....
    Hmmmm
    That was a big help cheers once again

    I have fitted mine without damage to the zenki lip by making only the two small self tapping screw holes on the outer edges of the bumper bar.
    Small "L" shaped brackets and its done.
    Looks sweet too if you can get it to sit up as flush as possible to bar and keep the natural lines of the bar flowing into the lip.

    Pic of small L shaped brackets.



    I trimmed away a bit of each corner to make it sit flush with the bumper.



    At that height, it doesn't on speed bumps, but does scrape frequently when leaving carparks or going over shallow gutters. The lip is flexible, but so are the brackets and I've managed to squish most of them already

    looks the goods dude
    Just needed to make sure coz the last thing i wanted to do was buy a brand new lip and destroy it trying to fit it.
    In the link from 7oxin it shows where they have cut away (die grinded ) the inside corner so it sits flush, that part i wanted to know most and what actual lip.
    As for the brackets i will be able to make something up at work no worries.
    Now since i have the lip sorted might need to start a new thread to see if anyone has fitted standard s13 nissan side skirts to there 86 ???
    That team mouse black coupe has me sold !!!!!!!!

    Its pretty easy, and obvious once you try and fit it which bits need to be trimmed away. I just used some side cutters. The plastic is soft.
