Just saw this on ebay. Not sure on the fit but its a fairly cheap price anyway...
2004-2006 MAZDA 6 FRONT BUMPER LIP SPOILER BODYKIT PU | eBay
Like A Pirate, I cannot find a suitable rubber to use. My local Clark Rubber store has the type Toddy used, but they want $21.95 a metre.... uhh. Also, the fact my front bumper is currently 110mm off the ground doesn't help.
The lip-structure Rogwick used would be perfect, alas the soft rubber bit is the only thing holding me back from buying it. I might have to go to our clients warehouse (garage door company) to have a look-see. Will report back if I find something good.
I used 3M tape for my lip all the way, didn't need any screws! And it's holding there like super glue
I used silicone for the middle and screws for the sides, still on the same Lip since install about mid day 15-05-2010 (the first post to this thread)
Haven't had an issue
Well I finally found a lip I like...

Problem is, they're not for the MPS! It's the third one down, "STI STYLE FRONT LIP"
Anyhow the company is in Perth so I've sent them an email with a proposition to use a Perth members' MPS3 and MPS6 to formulate something for us. Let's see what they say
edit: I wonder if the STi Style lip will fit ours with some modifications... hmm. Kind of like how Integra lips fit on S15s.
Looks pretty cool and if the price is similar its not too bad if they can come up with an MPS LIP.
Let us know how you go
Damn you reply fast!
Yeah I'm hoping for sub $150 as introductory pricing... I may be dreaming though. I'll check who else in Sydney can fab up a lip.
edit: I may just end up spending $15 and getting the one you used from amazon.com. All depends on if adding new tyres stops me scrapping the front T plastic piece (under the front bumper) on medium road dips. I never used to have this issue before with the 215/45s... 5mm change in profile makes one hell of a difference.

okie dokey, received a reply back from ultrex... they're happy to do custom fitting with their current lips as they're a close fit, but if we want a MPS-specific lip made up, we'd need at least 20 for a group buy. So... make a new thread?
If any MPS6 owner is keen for one now, please let me know as I'd rather just buy one of their current lips and modify it to fit, pending it works on your car.
Yeah I reckon make a new thread to engage more interest. People may over look this thread
Thought if give this a bump and post my toddys lip. This is only with 3m automotive tape at the moment, no screws. I'm quite happy with it, was a bitch to position this tough rubber, though.

Looks great mate, you may find you might need some screws when/if the tape starts to fail. This Lip (on a lowered MPS) tends to scrape a bit which might cause a bit of movement and loosen the Lip. See how you go
Good work though! Nice to see a bump on this thread with another Lip done!

Nice work mate
Sorry if it's already been mentioned, but how flexible is the front lip?
I'm thinking of doing this mod in the next few months, i think it looks
really aggressive for minimal outlay, the only thing i'm worried about
is excessive scrapping and tearing the bar off (it's happened already)
Cheers Todd
Which Lip mate? The one mentioned above (Toddy's) or the one I have?
Just quickly, both flex and bend if/when you hit something. I'd try not to make it a habit though as the Lip above (Toddy's) looks a bit ugly with scrapes on it. Last time I was in the car with Toddy in a multi-level carpark it scraped on every level we went up (the ramp) Doing no damage to the front bar or anything, just bending the rubber lip that's all. You'll know if/when you go have a look to buy the stuff, its pretty flexible in your hands.
