Default GFX front lip

Where can i find the GFX front lip in crystal white. I know not many companies make them anymore, it seems inpossible to find Does anyone know where these could still be available? Is the 2007 white close enough to the 2006?

i tried that, but its discontinued in crystal white, so i figured unpainted and get it painted, but it says $466 instead of $188? How can that be? Is the starfire pearl close to crystal?

Just pick any color, preferably a lighter one, and then repaint it. I don't think you'd have to go with the unpainted as long as there was proper prep work

get one from westminster and order it. probably only 120 for an authentic. then have it painted, which should be around 100.

^^^ I tried that a while back. It garnered little to no response . I guess everyone wants to keep their CW lips!

I ended up buying a BWB GFX front from Sewell when the lips were on sale a while back. It's sitting in my garage waiting to be painted when I'm ready to have my front bumper re-painted and feathered into my hood so the color matches. I think you can still pick one up in a diff color on closeout from Sewell right for decently inexpensive and have it painted.

Good luck finding one though !!
