Ebay Front Lip Rattle Canned

Just looking for opinions the lip was $120 shipped I think it looks okay. Also what do you guys think of the amber side markers? Keep em or no?

Man, I don't want to sound harsh but that looks horrible!!! It makes me think of those Honduh guys with the unpainted body kits running around.

Agreed... get that lip painted corrrectly, and it might look more acceptable, but currently it looks like primer'ed body parts.

But, in regards to the sidemarkers... they look good. Really you could go either way with a silver car.

painted it black i think would give it a decent offset but I honestly believe it would take away from the car looking "clean" Anybody have any pictures of a Do luck lip on (really any color) actually body colored?

Either paint it black, or apex silver. not a rattle can black but an actual paint job with clear coat.

Paint it to match. I rattle canned mine white and clear coated it. Silver is going to be hard to match though.



Best thing about a rattle can paint job?

The fact that I can reprint it for about $5 worth of supplies.

You can paint your lip Gloss Black and it WILL look good, i guarantee it. What you can also try doing since you MOST likely won't be able to match your car paint with a rattle can, you can do something like dark grey.

Either should work imo.
