Re: DIY lip (gud boi)
"Professional" grade (brand?) pound in garden edging. Big black roll. Good enough for two applications I think. You will cut off the hook part that goes into the ground, and use it upside down. Make sure your cut is straight! Some kind of screws, black or silver, or rivets if you want to do it the hard way. I also used 3M double sided tape. I wanted to only use the tape, so I spent $10 on it, but it didn't work. So then I screwed it. Bring it indoors and unroll it, let it warm up a bit so it straightens out some. Or lightly heat it up, it will warp if you aren't careful. An extra set of hands will be helpful to line it up and keep it in place as you screw it on. Be prepared to scrape a lot of driveway aprons. But hell, it was only 5 bucks. Now go look like you drive one of those cool Production race cars!

Re: DIY lip (Soichiro Honda)
hahaha, it is ghetto, but if u do it so it looks good, u can't even tell 
anyways, i just want something to protect my bumper a little from scraping...so go ahead and spend your $80+ on SPOON lips that crack on speed bumps if u have the money, go for it
