DIY front lip

Postby jerdes » Wed Apr 20, 2011 2:20 pm

Came across the people at CR doing a DIY front lip and it turned out pretty good for what seemed a cheap price, link

Wondering if the aussie boys have found any similar material that can be used. I tried bunnings and didn't seem to find anything, tried clark rubber and it cost quite a fair bit.

i now actually own that car in the link :D

its the bit different to the rubber 'garage door bottom' lips on CR,but its something to think about....
i actually broke that particular lip in the lip and made my own one using those instructions...got plastic guttering from mitre10...
just a long bit of pvc plastic with a 90 degree bend in it....$11.20 if memory serves correct
