What material do you buy and how do you get a perfect bend in it?

3 inch garden guard ($5), 3m double sticky **** ($2) and some rivets.

Just my opinion, but I'd personally go with a stock lip. Hell, pick one up from a junkyard or go to http://www.troyshondaparts.com

The G2 Racer

When you trim the lip a bit it doesn't look half bad. I've got one on my hatch. Looks ok to me.

Kalokohan

I like mine too. I used 3M tape and 2 screws, one on each end and one right smack dab in the middle.

jdmsol

well, after looking at that pic again...it actually doesn't look that bad. how well does it hold up in the rain and wind? i'll still take my oem one, but good option for those not wanting to spend that much.

are these paintable? hell it beats paying 400 for a spoon one... and if it breaks, gets damaged, stolen you know where to get another one.... what exactly is the lip, garden liner? what is it called so i can look for it

Kalokohan

If you properly apply the tape, meaning clean the bumper thoroughly and wipe it down with rubbing alcohol, the 3M tape will adhese very well. My driveway is pretty steep and I scrape everyday coming in an out. Rain, roadkill, road debris, none of those phase it if installed properly. I used the 3 screws for piece of mind.

I think it looks good for $5.

I am most likely gonna do it....at least for now! especially since my car is black.

it looks good on the white civic above.

Kalokohan

It looks very nice on a black car. I just finished helping my cousin install one on his black 98 eclipse gs-t. I'll try to take pics. Thanks, definitely one of the cost-saving mods I've done to my hatch.

does anyone have a pic of this on an EK
oh by the way I saw this on an EG at an autoX this week end and it looked hella Phat

yaya

i like the idea of a disposable lip, they are supposed to sit low, consequently they get fucked up.....good idea, ill probably do it myself later on

those expensive *** spoon lips look neato but ****, they just get scratched up

intezn

any more info on sku # or what to look for at home depot?

Mrfirefox

I want to know too and where did you apply the rivits cause I can't see them, more install tips would be nice and did you cut the garden liner thing?

deftones0817

please tell me where you put the rivets i want to do this and my front lip is all f*cked up from scarpping (oem) so please some more detail pics...thanks in advance.

thats so ghetto, but it dont look hald bad though

boosted hybrid

I am shocked that it actually works. I thought about making my own front splitter for road racing, but i guess i might have to try this out.

stockegsix

its called "cove base molding" they are .47 cent per foot.



i used screws to hold them. i know its really ghetto but i actually have gotten compliments on it. this is only temporary, i'll get a real lip soon.

I used the material called cove base. its thinner in width and more flexible, but its kinda flimsy.

hXc-DC2

Wow, I've never really seen these lips before. They actually look pretty decent. I will probably make my own because the streets here suck bigtime and i wont have to worry about srcaping the **** out of a $400 Spoon lip.

jas0n

hahah can we say ghetto the guy i bought my car from had that **** on i took it off and what did i find a stock lip

skunk2unerz

wow man those HD lips look pretty good too. And to think i have a whole roll of that stuff sitting in my garage.....might have to try that out.

TodaSi

Guys, do those lips fold/bend when running on the highway?
