yeah that does look pretty good in real life it may look a little different as you cant skew strech and scale it.

looks slow...
lol I like it, but dont think it will work w/o lots of fab work because it is much more of a curve than our front bumpers.
if you need help tho, holla!

you could probably use some fiberglass and resin to do the join. I can't see cutting it and putting it together ending very well though.

that's probably the only way to make it fit the bumper. or i might fiberglasss/bondo the whole thing.

I highly reccomend the fiberglass/resin route over bondo. Bondo would crack way to easily.

Definitely a good choice my man! I dont think the red is fitting AT ALL.

Ok, I order a V lip off ebay, turns out it didn't look like the one posted.
Instead, I got this style. I was surprised that it almost fit on the bumper. Still needs work tho..i started trimming it and fitting it together...then it started to rain :roll: ..hopefully I'll get it on there this weekend.

yeah bro def, leave it black................
or get some carbon fiber vinyl and do it in carbon fiber, this way its not nearly expensive as real carbon fiber and ... you can replace the vinyl very easly if it gets damaged!!!!!

well, a bit of work today to get the lip on..it made it hard to line up with the bumper due to the lip being bend when i crammed it in my car.
Fitment wasn't all that great, i wish i had the other lip to begin with.

Interesting, I like seeing stuff like this, the effort alone gets a nod from me.

03-21-2008, 10:22 PM
yeah, I cant wait til i hit something and break it..then it'll give me the excuse to get another lip :lol: :roll: ..but next time, it's gonna be the exact same lip as originally posted.
