Default EF 90-91 si front lip custom made on rear.

hey guys, bored as hell today so i decided to make a custom rear lip out of an extra si front lip i had. it looks decent for 30 min of work. all i had to do was some cutting on the inside of the lip so i could bend the lip aroudn the back and cut a few pieces, drill some holes, and walah! its not OEM style, but looks pretty close, tell me whatcha think, remember this wasn't made for the rear so dont diss too hard, it makes my piso-**** ride look a lil better

So how hard was it to make the bends along the edge of the bumper?

not hard at all, used a rotozip to cut (ununsed) plastic that acts as a support for the lip and it bends perfectly. the only thing is. that where the bend on each side of the car you cannot just slap it on and call it a day. You have to match your curve of the lip with the curvve of the bumper, when you do that there will be extra plastic on the inner fender of the rear tire. you have to cut the access off so you cannot have the cap and then do the same where the muffler cuts out. but defenitly looks badass for a spare lip and 30 min of thinking time. even did it in the dark in the rain. hope that helps you out.

I would make a cap at the end so it looks finished.

thanks guys. and yes it took about 30 min with some of my pops tools. the rear suspension setup is stock struts with shitty *** r1 coil-overs. they were off my friends teg and the only reason i use the is becasue i like the rear dumped. i seem to like the rear dumped and tucked, not having the rear *** hanging out. i wanna switch over to some sprint springs but i was woundering what springs i should use while keeping the car tucked as it is now and keeping it cost efficent? anyone know that would be great. pm me. thanks for the input guys.

dont mean to stress this too much, but all the diy rear lips i see are on stock exhausts. Which IMO looks like theres a gaping hole. overall looks pretty good , but needs an aftermarket exhaust
