Default bumper/lip question

the bottom of my front bumper has a giant dent in it. i didn't do it, the idiot before me did. it looks like he ran into a curb or something. so i wondering if i could just get a lip on it to cover it up. im not sure how a lip gets onto a bumper. and what lip is not too ricey but will look better on a gsr?

what year is it? the popular and best looking lip is the oem itr lip, it usually overlaps a little onto the bumper, but not much, if its before 98 you can get lips that replace the whole bottom section of the bumper.

You can use a heat gun to remove the dent. Try popping it out without the heat first.

well depending the the year of ur car and condition of ur bumper we can determine if a lip would fit. and most lips are just bolted up by screws...some replicas use double sided tape.

Holy schnikeys!!! Thats worse than i thought. You should probably just try and find a used bumper from a Bone Yard. Thats what i would do becuase i dont think a lip would be able to cover that up

lol ya, a lip will NOT fit on that without modification. so u have two choices:
1) buy a new bumper
or
2) fix that dent somehow

i think that lower section of the bumper is removable if 94-97....not positive though, i'd check and maybe just replace lower fascia.
