Anyone think they can make a DIY? I'm liking this more than my TOM's lip but never had the guts to attempt it? Lol.

BTW this is TRD11 celica. Here's his project thread: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...mp;#entry984224

WHAT?!!!

hahha. to each his own I guess. I love my TOM's lip.
seems like a fairly easy thing to do. buy garden liner, cut it up and slap it on.
a few members have done it before. you gonna leave it black or color match it?
not sure how well it holds paint.

Hahah. I know. I love my TOM's lip a lot but recently my brother cracked it. Mine is a replica btw. So I've been looking for alternatives for future references. I was thinking of color matching it or spray gunmetal instead of silver. Lol.

It's not cracked bad but it has a crack from the bottom. Which was from my brother. Also has two cracks on the upper part where it snugs onto the middle part of the bumper. Probably from an off casting. I'm waiting until next year when I take my car into the body shop for paint job. That's when I'll decide if I want repair my front lip and keep it or just go with the home depot method. If I ever do decided on going with the home depot then I'll let you know. Lol.
