    bbs rs outter lips... and yes i did search

    so i have been searching the past few days. i got a set of bbr rs005 and the outer lips arent work trying to save. so i found kodiak as obviously being the cheapest but they dont make rs lips anymore according to their website. i dont know if anyone can confirm this or if you can call and custom order.

    -kodiak out of business
    then i cam across this on the all things bbs sticky

    places to buy lips:
    http://www.rkimporting.com/accessories.htm has Schmidt lips for 135 each. bolts for RS and RM's around $190, cone or hex flat caps for $225 see price sheet here

    http://www.tunershop.com sells Schmidt lips for 529$ total. that INCLUDES shipping. this is the best price I have found, and it is where I ordered mine from, it took about two weeks or so from the UK and these lips are absolutely GORGEOUS.
    tunershop also sells ATS cups brand new for about 250$ a pop.

    http://www.blackforestindustries.com sells gold bolts for $1.35e. image lips $159e. or about $658 for a set shipped.

    http://www.imagewheels.co.uk charges 760$ for four lips shipped.

    http://justmatz.co.uk has alloys lips for about 640$ for a set, plus 90$ shipping. they also sell STAINLESS lips for 226$ each, which they say are heavier but are super strong. they also sell centers, bolts, rebuilt wheels and so on. I dont know who makes the lips they sell.


    my question being is there anywhere that has lips that are priced reasonably like kodiak was??? or should i just try and fix all te rash on the wheels??? or can you even fix the rash on wheels? deep rash? i just cant see myself spending more on outer lips than i did on the wheels

            I'd have to agree with Zeke. Or try MemoryFab.

              Dude, have you even visited these sites?!?! Schmidt lips at Tunershop are $300/ea?! Where the hell did you come up with $529 TOTAL?!?! (I'm assuming total = 4). Some of the other links are dead...
