Coupe duckbill trunk lip. Where to get one?

Hi All,

I've been wanting one of the duckbill trunks, but have not done it because I don't want to deal with the fitment issues. I'd like to get just the lip and have my body shop mold it into the OEM trunk, but I can't seem to find the lip part anymore. It's been awhile since I've checked, but apparently no one is making them any more. I don't want to spend $400-$500 on just the freaking lip (Gialla) and it appears that Strafe is no longer in business, which is where I think I saw a cheaper version of the lip by itself. Is anyone making just the lip that doesn't cost $500?

Well, a week later and no response at all from those guys. I guess they don't want to take money from someone that's ready to hand it over. I'll find someone else I guess.

Anyone know of another company that makes the duckbill trunk lip that I can have molded into my factory trunk?

I appreciate that people don't jump on this forum every day, but it's been 8 days since I sent the PM. If you're going to advertise and do some of your business through a forum like this, you should probably make it a point to check PM's at least every few days.
