Default CUSTOM made 97-00 SC front lips! show ur creativity

hello. i really want to put a front lip on my 1997 SC to give it a suttle and lowered look in the front. i want a lip that flows nicely with the stock 97-00 side skirts.

HAS ANYONE MADE A CUSTOM LIP FOR THE 97 FRONT BUMPER???

ive seen a 92 lip put on a 97 bumper with modification. it was really really really clean(the sc was red dropped on some axis wheels)! anyone else do some sort of custom work using a lip from another car or any other material??????

there are a few lips i like due to cleanliness like the wise and wald, but hang low and dont flow with the stock sides....

please post pics of what u made, the process, materials, etc.... thanks

I was talking to 2JZSoarer earlier today cause I love his lip, makes the car look very aggresive! Get this it's made from some garden divider that was cut and double taped and zip tied to hold it in place! Here are some pics of his car!

I am working on a custom Splitter Lip like that on the McLaren SLR. It may be built out of CF. It's main design functions are to:
  • Improve the down force of the car at high speed
  • improve the agressive aesthetic stance of the car
  • match up with the Stock 97-2000 front bumper, side skirts, and rear bumper.
I will keep you updated...BTW, this will be a One-Off...

Your car is stunningly beautiful!!! Gorgeous red paint, and the wheels dress it up very nicely... The lip looks awesome as well...
