    i went to the junyard yesterday and i got mine for 10 bucks and installed it during the night

    my is held by bolts and nuts securely,

    if one cant be careful enough to prevent crashing your lip then dont get a lip, because you will do it again, is common sense

                      These lips look soooo much better with a little heat gun work to bend the sides under so they don't stick out on the side. Otherwise it really doesn't look right at all...

                          It takes 5 minutes to do, or easier yet, you can use a fucking zip tie to pull it in. I do have to say though, now that I have an iS lip, it's well worth it over the volvo.

                              got mine today at Crazy Rayz for $10. I'd like to have an IS lip, but I just bought the car last week, and a motor, and I'm paying for an m50 turbo build... so the $10 lip won out over the $150 one

                                The I lip looked much better on your car.

                                I don't get why you guys bitch about IS lips? They're $137 SHIPPED from Tischer.
