Spoonjabee – A little Spoon

“Spoonjabee” a toast, an homage, to the golden era. IYKYK.

OfferUp listing for a Spoon front lip

Came across a used Spoon carbon front lip for sale on OfferUp. I passed it up for about two days. I wasn’t actively looking for a lip; it just happened to appear in my feed.

I circled back and went over the post once more. Location? Ontario. Okay, close by. Seller? Oillie… Hmm, could that be Ollie? The Ollie I call “Oliver’s cousin,” who also has a red CTR…

When we linked up, I got a chance to see the fitment in person. I’d been curious about how well these sit against the factory bumper, so that was a plus. We chopped it up for a good while about projects, lips, etc. We were both hoping for an Exceed, but the 14-month wait was a bit of a turnoff.

Before I can install it, I’ll need to clean off the old adhesive and figure out how I want to protect the paint underneath. I’m not too fond of the idea of having something attached directly to the bumper that could eventually rub through the finish.

Still tossing around a few ideas for that. For now, it’s another part waiting to be installed. LOL.
