Default I just finished lip install

My last mod on my list is a roof spoiler and fog light 4300k Xenon kit for now, then we'll see, I can't really afford to be modding 2 toys at the moment, mortgage takes a good amount now and the plate screws are for those idiots that might back into my bumper





My other toy

no shoes for me, with all the front end problems these cars have, I'm all set, for now at least, I rather spend that money into nice brake system endless perhaps

Nice pics.. The tte lip really does complete the front end very nicely.. Nice install BTW... Also, you may need wheels because the endless BBK of which ever you choose may not fit the stock 17's.. Maybe with spacers.. YOu could upgrade to 18's high dish to clear a BBK.. GL..

I when to home depot, and asked for the strongest poly adhesive they had, the stuff was drying quick and I just put tape on it for a couple of hours and the 5 screws underneath, I wanted to get it molded, but couldn't justify spending that extra money, it's a daily driver

Looks good, if you spend the $ to get endless breaks you gotta spend the $ to get some wheels that will show them off properly

Hey, you have the same color as mine (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=289179) except yours looks pristine while I have both bumpers to fix and a few hater-sigs.

if you don't get new wheels, at the very least get the H&R spacers - one member on here has them on his stock 17"s and it pushes them out VERY nicely.

btw- good job on the install of the lip.
