painted lip!

painted lip!

i finallllly painted my lip and i gotta say it looks much better now that the curves are camouflaged into the bumper and looks less out of place.. pics in the morning

Also, does anyone have any tips on rolling the rear fenders? it rubs really badly now and its taking chunks of rubber out of my tires...

can't wait to see the pics. told you it would look a lot better painted.

there are tutorials on youtube. its up to you on what method. some do it with a rubber mallet and their hand on the other side, some use a baseball bat, but the best way to do it would be to rent a fender roller.

Im thinking eventually the lip will fade and or get scratched to match the rest of my bumper , although im having everything repainted next week, oh well.

not bad, not a real fan of that lip
headlights could use a cleaning tho

Says the guy with a garage door bottom stuck under his bumper.


HummerH20, that lip looks good.

Looks good, can't wait till I get some time to put mine on

get a rear lip to complete the look

i think it looks bad ass

i wish they made lips like that for seveth gens cause that would be sick

Car looks nice bro. I wish it was nice enough here to start putting all my stuff on my car Keep up the good work!

lolololol

lol its the internet, u put stuff on the net, u gonna got comments, i dont like it, end of discussion, u dont like my shit go post it in the thread, could care less bout what u think
my purpose to post it was if someone might wanna try the same thing, no ones forcin anyone

For the sake of neutrality I agree bro!!

But i got to admit i do like it. I think it looks alright, its just the connotation that probably bugs ppl.

LMFAO!!!!

But regardless you have a silver car, that lip will never match in color just because of the color. When I got my TRD lips painted, the guy re-sprayed the bottom half of the car to match but then it wouldn't blend so he sprayed some more. Long story short I had to get an entire re-spray to have the silver blend and match. Silver = Impossible to blend.

looks much better painted.

im thinking to paint the side mirrors the same color, since its not too close to anything else silver, so it wont be too obvious it dont match.

eh, i just noticed, why the hell do we still have our x-mas lights up...

And here I am wanting to paint my mirrors and wheels black.

black looks nice with white, not so much with silver.

paint ur mirrors, you'll be glad you did.

i would leave the side mirror as is because if do you gotta do the all door handles and if you still have your side molding put it back on and leave it black be alittle different from others and as for the lip it looks much better.

i dont have side moldings lol.

my bad...ce and ve dont have side moldings or its only ce

VEs dont.

I have an LE without side moldings.

looks more complete now. nice improvement

with the tinted windows i would look at blacking out everything inside the moldings instead of painting the mirrors. just a thought but I told you painting the lip would look a lot better

Im not good at paint and dont have photoshop but I figured this would give you an idea of what im talking about.

if he does that he should paint his door handles IMO...

Must have blacked headlights to match.

Heres a better pic...

I agree....
