home depot diy homemade front lip?

[jptalaga]

so i recently looked into making my own front lip i was just wondering if anyone on here has done this. majority of diy lips are garden liner or garage door liner. which is better and easier to install?
jw because im thinking of mounting one on myself. looks good if done right

any words of advice is greatly appreciated. =]

[cdlong]

looks good if done right

I'll give you a summary on Home Depot front lips.

Version 4 - Corner protector. This is my idea and my car. I was bored one day, so tried it and it came out pretty good. It's clear, so I wrapped it with a sticker sheet. I was inspired by lips on GT-R.

[nismoracingsx]

So I recently looked into making my own front lip, and I just realized that I could just save a little money and buy a nice fitting/looking lip.

Well, since you asked, aftermarket lips don't have to cost a whole lot of change.

PDM makes one, for example.

240sx are one of the cheapest rwd cars available. Which is why many "broke" people own them.

Garden Supplies on your car....

hop back in the 85 civic bro.

[Scionide]

I'm okay with the garden edging lip, it your car is low like mine and your driveway is steep like mine when it rips off new rivets and your good to go, I dont want to risk damaging a pig nose lip if I had one

[zombiewolf513]

Home depot lips are almost as rice as lambo doors and neon, I'd surely laugh at you if you told me you made your front lip out of a garden border.


If you can find one:
