Re: 100% more lip!!
The lip arrived today. Wasn't too pleased with the way they crammed it into that box though. But it seems like that bend will come out since it's flexible polyurethane. I stepped on it for a min and the bend came out 75%. You can definately tell it's a knockoff by the quality but it'll work fine I think. It should still look pretty good on the car and a hell of a lot better than garage door trim.

Re: 100% more lip!!
Jesus, I wouldn't be too happy about that either
But I guess for $65 you can't be too picky. Does look like it should be fine once mounted though. I like that it's flexible at least.

Re: 100% more lip!!
Yeah it'll be fine once it's mounted. It needs to have a couple inches trimmed off the ends. Plus you'll need to bend the sides in because they stick out but it looks like either with the screws alone or with the help of a little heat it should be fine.
Here you can see how much it needs to be bent in.

Here you can see how much needs to be cut off.

Re: 100% more lip!!
Got the lip on today. It took a bit of heat gun work to get it to fit properly. The sides stuck out pretty far and needed to be heated and bent in. Haven't decided how I want to trim the ends yet but I did have to cut over an inch off just to get it screwed in place.

Re: 100% more lip!!
Thanks guys. It's pretty sweet for the price. Just make sure you got a heat gun and some patience.

Re: 100% more lip!!
I've seen this car in person, it's way to clean. You took these up at Ocean Shores huh?
Re: 100% more lip!!
Well considering no one makes a lip for this car that you can get in this country it shouldn't be all that surprisingsubaru_styles wrote:great pics jake...sorry bout the lemmings

I do apologize that this got so far off topic though.
Re: 100% more lip!!

Re: 100% more lip!!
Hey Jake, did you have to use a heat gun to get the OEM lip to fit?

Re: 100% more lip!!
Nope, i made one triangle relief cut in each corner to bring the lip in a little more on the sides.

Re: 100% more lip!!
I see. Makes sense. Good idea. Probably better than heat.
