Message	After.. a good half a year + a month or two, my front lip is back on the Z. I never seem to be able to realign my front bumper properly, so.. don't mind the gap on the drivers side, I'll fix it eventually. This is the first lip I made, I just fixed all the cracks from slamming it into the pavement too much. I decided I didn't want to make an entirely new one right now, plus driving around Alexandria last Thurs + Fri scraped the bottom of my front bumper (which had been repainted at the beginning of June) so I wanted to have something to cover it up. So.. who wants to help me with producing some lips once I come up with a final design? :) I have a couple changes I'm going to make the next time around, someday I'll post up my sketches and see what you guys think of it. Before : After : : There are a couple things wrong with it, but you'd have to have a pretty good eye to spot them in these pictures. For something completely built from scratch I think it turned out pretty well. All pics were taken with my iphone, which is why one of them is really grainy since it was around dusk. And a random picture just for the hell of it at the Nissan Dealership. :
