Well I'm going to order the lip sometime next week since I'm painting my bumper why not make the paint match perfect right? I was just hoping to see the finished product and how low it sits so I can match up my side skirts.

yeah please take pictures i might be able to help you im thinking of cutting it in half then fiberglassing the gap then blocking it down so i use the least amount of body filler.

If you can pull this off it should be interesting. Check your mounting points and you may need to do a bit of fiberglassing on the upper edge of the lip to match the contour of the 97 bumper.

Ok here are some pictures from my iPhone. This is an fiberglass replica that I got from Raceonusa. Had it cut in the middle and just extended it and screwed it onto the bumper. Cost me probably the same amount as the Big Win lip but I did not have to wait for it.

Well to cut up the bumper up and fit it on the 97 just sounds like too much work I would have to fiber glass stuff and fill a lot of othere things just isn't worth it. Plus the wise lip is already a lip all I have to do is cut that in half and fill it and also cheaper.
