Sparks017 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I've been looking through many browsers and sites searching for a lip kit for my 1996. So far I am getting no where besides finding one front lip spoiler but no others. Is there any lip kits for a '96? If you know of any can you please help me out?

WESTcoast Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 people have custom fited, different lips like the v-limited, an intergra typeR lip, and others. go to sl-i.net and look through the rides thread to get some ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibob6 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Just find a GT lip, it's not the greatest option but if you put a L model next to a GT the stock lip kit looks like a pretty sexy idea. just my two cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichySteele Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 try the ever so famous and cheap garage door sealer lip! i had one on my old 98 with the gt lip it looked decent. heres a pic http://i871.photobucket.com/albums/ab276/richysteele/0905091823-01.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwa2500 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 there is a lip for the older style bumper, it came on the JDM GT and RS models as i understand it. quite hard to get your hands on one though http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/1959/img0720yb3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichySteele Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 the garage door sealer lip! I laughed the first time I heard of it but, it is what all the cool kids are doing! j/k you can buy it on ebay here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Universal-Front-Bumper-Lip-Splitter-DODGE-TOYOTA-SCION-/270578334454?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ALegacy&hash=item3effb9baf6 or go to home depot or lowes an buy the items to diy. you'll need double sided tape a self tapping screws. an some king frost garage door sealer. this method will cost about 15 bux or less the other ebay item is premade from the same listed items but costs 30 or more dollars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaz98gt Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 yeah i've done the garage door lip too and it works really well! self-tapping screws, washers, and you're good to go. At most you'll spend $15 on it, and it looks awesome. Take your time and do it right, and you'll be all set. I have pictures of mine if you're interested, but I've gotta get them off my other computer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaz98gt Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 do it up! sorry I don't have pics of mine, but I love it on and it's nothing to worry about if you lose an inch of ground cleareance. It's a $10 piece of foam, no big deal if you accidentally pull too close to the curb (it should flex too so you should be set). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amp27 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 i plow dirt with my bumper sometimes, haha, i have bent the tow hooks in.. i change my cars frame more a day then Obama changes the nation a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks017 Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 how low is your car, the extra lip shouldnt bring your bumper that close to the ground unless its lowered a little or something of that kind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rshaw123 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 I just threw on some WRX wheels on my car to not make it look like a Grandma car (and then I lowered it about a year later ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
