Please put eibachs on again, lol.

Not bad. It feels like the lip is much taller than it should be. You should trim it a little more.

Not a fan. What did you use? that doesn't look like garage door bottom seal. :scratch:

they don't look so bad if they are colour matched.

Flhmfd: what did u use for the lip?

I used some garden edge

And yes I agree it should be trimmed some more. I was just getting an idea of what it looked like and if I wanted to do

well, it looks OEM. It's never cracked or fallen off. I'm actually really really impressed with it.

It's garage door molding with 3M sticky glue shit on the back. I bought black for the first one and then got white and painted it silver.

I like it alot. I decided I want to do a full SRT body kit all the way around but, love my 02 front bumper too much to let it go. I am considering this method, and think you really pulled it off. :thumbup: DO IT!

Thanks. I cut it down some and think it is too short now, and the top of it buckles out in the middle, soo im going to try again.. It was easy enough!

Also ordered a mugen lip just for backup and srt skirts on the way. Have to figure something out for the rear bumper now
