    It's the only usdm air walker rep avail, so they basically control the market.
    Same thing with SSR's replica JDM bumpers
    Ok, so that's the market.

    Simple economics will show that if in fact his price is above that which the market is willing to pay, he will lower his price until it meets demand at the equilibrium point.

    I think the fact that its a replica shouldn't kill the price. The fact that it gives your more options without buying a jdm front is HUGE imo. If you don't want a replica then go all out and buy a JDM front and then the lip on top of that.

    To the OP tell your friend it looks like he did an awesome job and props for going out on a limb to create something to switch up the market a little bit for different pockets. Also there are a handful of people that thing the jdm front is hideous but if they like the look of the airwalker lip its now an option for them. The people who understand the time and quality in the products shouldn't have an issue spending a smidge more.


    Compare your ctr rep lips next to this and you should be able to realize why its a little more.


    should definitely try and snag some more pics man and seal the deal. GLWS

    I would say a groupbuy of 20 at a price of $250. Do the math 5 at $400 is $2000 which could take some time to sell. Get a groupbuy for 15-20 at $250 could yield $3750-5000 and sell at a decent time. I would be down! Also do some combo shipping to communities to save on shipping. If you do the math, you can make quick money.

    Just by the picture? lol
    All the replica lips has the problem, because the stock bumper doesn't have negative space for the lip to go.
    And since there is no negative space, all the replica lips stick out too much.
    I can see it in the picture, and I can also see it in the updated pictures.

    Since the lip goes over the stock bumper, it sticks out too much.
    I think for an airwalker rep usdm lip to have a near perfect fit, it would have to be a design that requires you to cut out half the bumper, and the lower grill thing by the foglights
    but that's pretty unrealistic sales wise.
    I mean the Mugen rep lip already has people weary about cutting holes in their front bumper.

    It's just me being picky, I'm not bashing on these or anything




    Bump, get this thing painted and some high quality pictures

    :( i don't like the idea of the walker rep. the only reason i love the walker lip is cause you need the JDM bumper to run it. keeps it more exclusive IMO.

    " That name again is Mister Plow!

    Nice workmanship and finish.

    Looks pretty clean except for on the left side. There is a little bit of a gap.
