wtf... Anything that looks like it would look cool as a lip and some double sided tape and or screws if you are so inclined. And if you had used the search tool properly you would have come up with many results.

Edit: Sorry, women have me in a bad mood right now.

you can use screw or double side tape. Tape is cleaner but it will fall off. Screws are tight but not as nice looking.

Yeah, some of the people on this board crack me up. They hate altezzas but love garden border.
Don't get me wrong, I hate altezzas too but I also hate garden border. It's for gardens not cars.

The Proper contractors name for it is: Cove Base moulding. Ive thought about it for my car many times: i had some laying around after a kitchen job once, then thought to my self: Self, do you want to put something this cheap and ghetto onto your car? The answer is no, if you want that look buy a race splitter, if you just want a lip, there are pletny of legitmate lips on the market find one you like, but dont go ghettotech. My opinons, its your choice though
