Default eBay front bumper lip / splitter / scrape guard

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tchlink:top:en

I want to make a cheap splitter / scrapeguard for m y Shine Auto Project bumper and this seems like a cheap option. Does anyone on here have experience with it?

Looks just like the infamous home depot lip. You can probably get door/garage guards at home depot for the same thing.

It is a home depot lip no doubt... i was just googling a custom made lip, but couldn't find anything even on the forum. i have a 95 bumper and i want to add a lip so will try to come up with something soon for my bumper.

DIY it Jerry. My friend is doing it to protect his repainted SE front lip on his Camry. If it turns out successful, I can put you in contact with him

This ebay ad used the photo below....but I'm pretty sure this was purchased at Home Depot.
I know this because I bought the "exact" bumper from a club lexus member, and it took me over
an hour to remove the lip so I could get it ready for paint.

I think it's pretty funny they're re-packaging rolls of the stuff to sell as "kits" on ebay. The stolen pics from various forums really add to their credibility too.

"It can be attached to any car" -- of course it can! Why not just admit it can also be used to seal your garage door too?!
