      I was able to get a 94 lip installed quite easily, took a bit of cutting on the ends to shorten the length and a few screws to hold it in place.

      Here are the pics of the front lip from an acura - cost maybe 30$ on Amazon.com. Had to cut a bit and used 3 black screws across the bottom and a few at the corners.

      I used industrial rubber molding it can be purchased at lowes or hardware store comes in variety colors or u can paint it. I started at edge of passenger wheel well and used power stapler to attach to my stock front bumper and can cut it with scissors then tapered the sides for more agressive look. Very cheap and easy to install at end I went back with self tapering screws for extra hold. Dont have to worry about it cracking like bodykits if you hit curb it just goes back to place when u leave.Name:  007.jpg

      I like it better than lip kit because it 4" wide so gives it more of bodykit look just my opinion though.

      I did three coats of paint. My rear tail lights look awesome however front headlights cant see very good, my fog lights took care of that though. Luckily I havent had any complaints from police either I have heard of people getting warinings from cops for having headlights to dark. I tested them in between coats but I ultimately wanted them to be black

      if you want to see better with your blacked out headlights, you can try these options:

      Thanks I wondered if the more expensive blue bulbs would make a difference but wasnt sure ill definetly have to consider that to be next purchase. I also consider doing like you have ur headlights with the extra led underneath looks sweet.
