I think Jonas53's idea of using the rubber lip from another vehicle is interesting too.

here is my car

well.. the FACTS for the haters:

1) yeah.. it was damn cheap... under 30 with the double side tape and screws....

2) it looks ok but its weavy a little bit

3) i got hotchkis drop and let me tell you something: i scrape my front every week!!!! i just cant help it! so this little mod is saved my ___ a few times already
i cant have a rs1 lip

it would be in pieces really fast!

4) its not " HOT ".... not a very cool upgrade like the carbonfiber rs1 lip...
but its something...... i like my overlay mod much better.

oh i installed it upside down.. i like it this way! the other way looks stupid

I actually really like what I see. I want some more xB owners to do their's so I can see more, lol.

Nice idea though!

I agree. I'm thinking just front too. Besides, I've never scraped the sideskirts or rear bumper before...just the front.

on an xB it looks redundant... like a double lip.

looks pretty good on a tC though. cheap enough and easy enough to take off if you end up not liking it.
