Whats the Australian alternative to the "Home Depot Garden Edging" that i see alot of you Americans are using ?

Or at least what are the dimensions when you buy them so i have a heads up when i go searching, I want to get a really thin one ( 5-10mm ) just to protect the fiberglass lip when i slam the car.

Thanks

You could try this stuff? http://ezlip.com/
Might be too soft for protection though

When said about modification I didn't mean the ones made by man. What I said was that it might have modified after being affected by a certain force.

If you want 5mm-10mm. Then go for the ezlip. The garden liner is a couple inches big.

^That's not garden edging, that's garage door weatherstripping.

This is garden edging:

At first I thought it looked ok until the up close shot. Its going to having to be a no for me.
But I can see the cheap appeal some people would see in this.

Have you got front splitters? Have been contemplating doing this but not sure how well it will fit

Sorry for the late reply man i forgot haha, I don't actually have splitters but i have an Aussie version of what i think everyone calls the 404? lip.
Taking a chance in putting this style lip underneath it but for the price/ and not ripping my bumper as much ill take the chance.

It was a single run lip that i brought off a ebay seller from Australia, it was called a Z-Max Style lip though and google showed some more for sale on other sites.

http://www.bodykits.com/VIS-Racing/Front-B...ZMX_011/840839/

http://www.visracing.com/newcatalog/Toyota...-Front-Lip.html

I don't know how good those sites are as sellers though you may be able to find a better source.
