This is a nice and easy weekend job which I believe made a subtle difference to my S15. I have never been into body kits and crazy spoilers, but this was a nice compromise.
I originally wanted a hard, fibreglass lip, but they proved to be either very expensive (~$400) or non-existent. So I thought a $35 Rhino Lip of eBay would be worth a shot. Besides if I didn't like it, it was only $35. Turned out to look quite good.
It comes in a roll and does look like its going to stick out at an odd angle, but you just have to trust it.
Start by finding the middle of the Rhino Lip, make a mark. This way you wont sell yourself short when you don't have enough on one side and too much on the other.
Begin by attaching the middle of the Rhino Lip to the middle of the bumper and then I chose every 100mm thereafter to add a screw and washer.
When you come to curves in your bumper you will have to cut notches in the Rhino Lip to accommodate for the bunching which occurs when it is bent.
Trim away the excess carefully, and you're done.
I'll post a better picture of the finished product later.
