that really is a beautiful color, and seeing all these pictures of even little modifications/maintenance makes me wish i would take more pictures of mine when doing the same.
Keep up the good work, that car is lucky to have you as its owner.
Thanks bro. I agree, this car is very lucky, yet my pocket doesn't feel the same, lol. Forgot to mention, I just hand detailed the entire car a few days ago.
So I was browsing Craigslist yesterday morning, like I usually do, and found an ad for an SC400 OEM front lip for $75. I've been seeing the ad for awhile, so I decided to try how low would the guy go, I see these things going around here in CL for $120+, so $75 ain't a bad price to begin with. But the guy was down south of the county so I told him, I have $50 cash now, and gimme a reason to drive down south. So I got it. I had a lot of time yesterday so I also installed it yesterday. Pretty straight forward, I just used a soldering iron to create holes for the screws on my '95 front bumper, and a couple of different sized circular files to make the holes bigger and smoother. Genius, eh?
Anyways, let me know what y'all think?
The lip was really clean btw, didn't have any serious scrapes nor cracks. I'm surprised how flexible the OEM lip is also.
Really love MIP. Makes me so glad that its the color I got as well. I need the 400 lip. Been wanting it for while and yours looks great lowered. I need to break down and get coilovers.
nice find... oem lip for the win .. true, those lips are hard to find at time and can get pricey . It takes a lot of abuse before you can break it compared to the fiberglass lips

Man, you have no idea how hard installing all the bolts and nuts. I had to stretch the lip a lot just for it to fit properly. And I made the wrong decision of not putting my SC on jackstands, so my elbows still hurt as of now from lying down on the ground the whole time. LOL

I know, a lot of people has been telling me to get a lip. I'm still getting used to it. I feel like the look doesn't look balanced with the front hanging lower than the rear. I'm just not ready to go all out on body kit and paint as of yet...
