Curb meets front lip

I will never buy ABS plastic again.

At least I only paid $50 for the lip.

It was dented inward, but I was able to pop most of it back out. I'll be sanding some of it down so the crack line isn't so badly noticed. I hurts me just looking at it.

Yeah, that's next.

I'd never buy a CF or fiberglass lip. I'd never considered ABS either until the low price was mentioned....now I know why.

Sadly Wings West doesn't make a 4th gen lip. I'm looking into a Greddy lip for later. Once I finish the rotor-over-hub and replace my MBC, I'll get a new lip. For now the quick/cheap fix of...

The Best for abs, use some fiberglass window screen for backing.
Home Depot. This **** hardens in seconds...and then sand it. I glued my JDMSh*t lip together from 3 pieces. Used it several times.
But a semi tire at 3a.m. ended it. I couldn't even find the pieces

OEM/Ex/siR now ftw!
