Finished my custom front lip, just needs paint now

Hey guys, I haven't posted here in a while so I thought I'd share with you guys what I've been working on. I just finished up making a custom fiberglass front lip for my car which I think turned out great. I'm gonna send it in for paint whenever I get my dent fixed from a hit and run. It looks kinda high now since I'm on regular lowering springs but I plan to go air soon.

Interesting. How is it going to mount? I usually like some sort of dimension/lines in lips, but I'd still love to see how this turns out.

It looks pretty good but a little rough. I actually like the simple design a lot.

Looks good man. It's got a OEM look to it. That's how it should've came from the factory IMO.

I ended up getting the lip molded to the bumper so it looks like it came that way

VERY nice man, that's how it should've came out of the factory. Definitely one of a kind (in a good way).

thanks guys for all the compliments. Sorry to say, but I'm not gonna be making any copies although I do have the mold for the lip. Hopefully my grille will be done this saturday so I can get a complete picture for you guys.

But... to show you what I did this morning... I made new center caps for my wheels since once popped out and it looked wack with 3. gotta keep it original x_x lol



*** They don't make my wheels anymore so I wasn't able to get replacements. Gotta be creative!

Looks really good, especially with the drop. However, I don't think the little fender flare line thingy should have followed all the way down to the bottom of the lip. That part looks a little strange for some reason.
