It looks really good in pics 2 and 4, but it looks imo too "chunky" in 1 and 3. Kinda like a bulldozer.

hmmm. definitely beefier than i expected. I think the lines are too defined, and it really shows on a lighter car. Looks great head on though. just the sides are funky.

I wonder what it would look like if it was sanded down some so that it wasn't as "sharp." I am talking specifically about the line on the sides, that angle upwards. any one want to try it? For Science!!!

You only have about 1/4 in of material so you couldn't get that far with just sanding. You would have to rework the lip quite a bit. The problem is that there isn't a good material I know of that will fill anything you shave that big on urethane. Fiberglass would definitely sacrifice the integrity of the lip, but may work as the lip isn't that flexible due to the shape. The material is very flexible, the lip itself doesn't flex much though.

Still needs paint but bumping this thread to see if anyone has gotten their lips painted

in some pics the car looks like it has a fat bottom lip. But others looks great.

Is that genuine OEM front lip? looks good with 01-02 bumper. Did it take a lot of work to make it fit?

^ that's the bayson r oem style 01-02 lip.

2 silver canadian coupes have that lip painted already.
