The lip used to be aluminum but scraped it too much that it was all jacked up so i remade a newone using some plastic garden separator if i have any time i'll make a lip extension to go with it.

I use the stock mounting points from the real lip but on the sides and the middle i made some brackets out of some spare sheetmetal. Just drill holes in the lip that you make then make brakets and bend them until you can get the lip to sit flush. Thats what i did. The type of plastic i used is kinda soft so it wont break and if you use a heat gun you can mold it pretty easily but make sure it doesnt get too hot or you've got plastic all over yourself.

Is it stiff enough so that it wont bend while you are just driving down the highway or something?Originally posted by B2ThaZiZzaI use the stock mounting points from the real lip but on the sides and the middle i made some brackets out of some spare sheetmetal.

Yep its stiff enough to stay in place and when i scrape it wont break, it just bends but with a heat gun it goes back to normal.Originally posted by riverdale21Is it stiff enough so that it wont bend while you are just driving down the highway or something?Originally posted by B2ThaZiZzaI use the stock mounting points from the real lip but on the sides and the middle i made some brackets out of some spare sheetmetal.
