Honest opinion of slightly ghetto mod.

Okay, so check this out.
http://www.srtforums.com/forums/f75/...ot-lip-379671/

I know the mere thought of using weather stripping to create a lip seems blasphemous, but it kinda works (at least in this instance)

I wonder how that'd look on a box.

It's sorta like a low key splitter. Also, the way I see it, it'll protect your real lip. If this piece of rubber gets screwed up, tear it off.

So yea... what do you think?

yea it looks good to me, and it'll give a little help with rubbing, just a bit of added protection for people with stock bumpers

I like this little mod alot... I was just thinking of getting a splitter to add something to the front, but this would be $275 cheaper.

Project for next weekend.

I actually saw this done on a SE-R Sentra lat night and it didn't look too bad actually. Sure it might be "ghetto" but its a smart move if you want to protect your lip from small things.
