Post Diy sc300 wise lip

DIY 92-96 SC300 WISE LIP

sorry guys im just tired of seeing 3 or 4 threads on how to mount your front lip lol...so here it goes real simple and clear DIY...

things you need:
5 license plate fasteners or 5 nuts and bolts (whatever you prefer) (you can even use zipties!!)
1 roll of double sided 3m tape..
about an hour...maybe less if you have someone helping you...

to make things easy jack your car up or put it on a lift like so..


next you will have to drill 5 holes on your lip..if you look closely you should be able to see 5 spots on your lip that look indented. drill there.. if you dont have 5 lil dimples then put some white out on the 5 holes you will be using to hold the center piece of you lip up on car, and press lip so that the paint marks your drill spots. Before you stick lip on put the 3m tape on the sides of you lip.. after drilling holes and applying 3m tape put your 5 screws or bolts zipties (whatever you prefer) up to the bumper and bolt it on (marked with lil red arrows) and press the 3m tape onto bumper.. (marked with the big red arrows)


side shot of where tape will be pressed on. highlighted where tape will be under lip in green.



final shot of lip mounted.





hope this helps have a nice day and if you have any questions you can feel free to pm or reply or whatever just dont start another thread on how to do it lol...

Good write up. What kind of lip is that or did you make it yourself out of spray insulation? Your SC looks almost like mine, except for the orange side markers.

rear lip 305, sides i tihnk where like 200 from hil, and front lip i think was like 160 or 180...not bad at all....the front lip fit flawlessly the sides didnt fit for crap....(extreme dimensions aka bodykitsusa) the reason the sides arent all the way on is because i have to make them fit (cut here, add some fiberglass and bondo here, etc.)lol...ill prolly do a quick diy on that too once i finish lol....

nice side skirts. your rides coming along cant wait to see it done,im debating on if im just staying with a front lip or adding sides and rear guess i'll wait and see what the black wheels look like and make a decision . i really like the sides you have, their like the stock ones on the later models nice and clean lines
