Default 93-98 Supra front bumper lip on Lexus Sc300/400
Who has more info on this? What's your opinions on 97+ Lexus SC front bumpers with this supra lip conversion? Is it easy to line up. Etc.

I am playing with the idea of fitting Supra lip on the 97+ bumper, since the supra lip is easy and cheaper to find. I will be lookifng into this more since I want to do something different with my front bumper.
Not sure how it will look but I will try. Will post pics as I start the project.

I have heard that it takes so serious modification to have good fitment.
but hey, hard work pays off. I have only seen a few sc's on here with supra lips and they looked pretty good.

The $90 lip on ebay is poly. You just cut it down the middle, extend the length with a little body work, and it will fit.

that lip in the picture is a photo shop im quite sure

In my opinion it doesn't flow too well , but if it can be done for cheap and made to fit why not

That photoshop doesnt do it justice....there was a photoshop of pre 97 and it didnt look too good either..

Well someone actually has that lip on a pre 97 in the SC groups on FB recently and it looks pretty good!

I don't believe it will need body work on the 92-96 body, just the 97+ guys as the width needs to be lengthened. Obviously you will need to find a way to attach it with several hidden screws underneath but that's not a big deal.
