Ha! you could put Nightrider red LED's in there
![]() It actually doesn't look as bad as it should, but by the time you've spent a load of cash getting that thing to fit properly, it would have been cheaper to get the real deal. You'll ruin your car if you put that on. -------------------- |

Not a bad idea nice to see some inventiveness off some 1 else shame it doesn't go farther round the corners of the bumper though celicas have a long nose , I used the diffuser off A renault espace it has 2 vents that look cool and I cut the bottom lip off it and turned it the other way up it fits pretty good |

Wow! You know with all that effort your going to put into that, i dont think its going to work. I am surprised at how much it does look like it could work, but its going to take time and money. All that time and money could be better spent elsewhere on your car, for example, painting it all the same color, getting halfway decent wheels, you know stuff like that.

thanks every one for looking but its not gonna be permanent i was just seeing what it would look like and yes it would be nice if the wing could reach all the way around. i saw a thread on here of someone making their won front bumper well i kinda want my own lip. as far as how much money it will cost idk but its not gonna be permanent but it does look like it could work. YES

One question...Why did you cut the upper portion into two piece also? I'm sure you have your reasoning, but you didn't elaborate much on it! I like where your headed now with the "toms" lip idea. Much better than the spoiler, even if the spoiler idea was eventive, it just wasnt attractive.

You dont like the way it looks stock, or you dont like the TOM's? There are a few different lips floating around. What were you planning on going with?

its not uncommon that people cut the same bottom portion of the same bumper and use it as a lip. thats a better idea than your first. Now will it go on and make a difference? I dunno because it just might go on exactly in the same place where your bumper is now and not look like a lip. You need a way to lower the lip and make it look like one.

I like where this is going, al right..., lol, no but seriously, it looks like its going to turnout grrrrreat!, but you are going to spend at least 50$ on fiverglass, atleast 1 layer, right? and a can of glossy red spraypaint WAIT on Pepboys/Autozone they have sprays that matches you car for under 5$
just giving you some affordable ideas... -------------------- ![]() waiting for LEDs for next project WOW recieved the LEDs, just tested a set up on a breadboard and I can barely see anything lol. I think I'm closer to being blind !! |

I would use a heat gun and bend the bottom out, that would straighten the front easier than what you are thinking of with the cardboard now.

and a can of glossy red spraypaint WAIT on Pepboys/Autozone they have sprays that matches you car for under 5$ just giving you some affordable ideas... Why would you ever suggest such a thing? I'm sorry that the man doesn't have much money, but making his car look even crappier isn't going to help. If you want your car to look good, why don't you spend the little bit of money that you get here and there and save up for REAL products. I'm not one to tell you not to make your own lip, but I'd be a damned idiot if I was going to tell you that's your first priority. Take off the V8 badge, get a decent paint job.. and stock or not.. get some freakin wheels. I usually never suggest this option... but since you're on a tight budget, get the $200 paint job at Maaco and do your own primer and body work. You're going to blow at least that much on this front lip thing, and this would help your car MUCH more than this. I understand you want to spice up your ride. But, make it a RIDE first before you try to spice it up. If you don't have the budget for it now, I'd suggest to just work on essentials until you do.

I'm pretty sure that every one here would do just more than a lil paint job and sticker if we had tons of money. I'm doing this cause i like to do things on my own. if there's one thing I've learned in the past couple of months is that you cant depend on other ppl to help. REMEMBER the ppl your dealing with online COULD be scamers (I'm not saying all of them are) but would you drop 200-300 dollars on a lip from somebody you dint know??? listen over all I DONT CARE what anyone says about what I'm doing, I'm just having fun and its my car and i do as I please.

Let's wait and see how it works out before anyone starts bashing..... If nobody ever tried anything new, we'd all be driving round in boring stock cars ![]() AMEN to that Lol, and the lord said be born, grow, mate and Modify!, lol, "no offence to any religios out there" you are so right, thats exactly why I mod my car depending on my budget, and I dont care of what anybody says about how the project looks like while in progress at the end I always hear the same"WOW", "AMAZING!"Unique!" ect, tell me about criticism, when my auto tech teacher used to make fun of the things I said that I was going to do to my car, and after the finished product he was freaking speechless, and after complimenting my work he said that he would call me Celica man and that I drove the highest tech batmobile lol Keep up the good work man, if you cant get the money todo the job, just try your best with what you have, because I know it sucks to leave cars stock, that was the #1 reason for websites like this one, and I know what you mean that the other dude was trying to bash, and I felt that too, but in some part I agree with him, if you can save the money do it and get the best, but if you cant save the money, just make the best you can, you know you can count on us for tips and ideas, thats the whole reason of this forum, to support eachother, if you need my help anything I could help you with any tips Ill be checking this forum every night for this whole week at around 12 am EST NJ timezone maybe earlier, dont think it twice to ask me any questions ok? thanks for understanding! ![]() -------------------- 94 st

Wow this is a great thread! Thanks for making this thread a reality. I love the cardboard lip. Good material, it wont break but make sure you take it off when it starts to rain or snow & don't drive into any deep puddles. are you going to the NY/NJ meet?

Good material, it wont break but make sure you take it off when it starts to rain or snow & don't drive into any deep puddles. are you going to the NY/NJ meet? ^Chuckle worthy despite the obvious future use of fiberglass........you are using fiberglass, right? Just make sure that you taper the end a bit as it's sticking out too far on the sides, and you keep that center support line straight. It seems to be sagging a bit as it stands. Also, has this been a salvage project? I can't help but notice half your parts don't match, or are spray painted red like your fender on the opposite side shown.
