Well if someone doesn't have anything down there yet.. it is always a temporary alternative. Looks pretty cool nonetheless.

And for theose of you that think it's gay, don't do it and spend your hard earn money on those CF lips that will chip and crack next time you hit anything.
you too ? man, i put one on my altima i use to have, i went from running high 17's in the 1/4 to low 13's with just adding this lip.... no other factors came in to play at all i swear to god

my CF lip is great, it holds up better than my stock lip did....

it looks good...i got a question for the guys hating though, if the fella posted the pics and just said "hey i got a new lip" and left out the part about the "$10 home depot strip"...would you guys still be saying the same thing you said or would you be saying, "hey that's not bad! where'd you get it?"

My thoughts exactly. It doesn't look as good as a new CF lip, but for $10 you can't beat it. I think it actually looks good and I would say it looks good even if I didn't know how much it costs to do. Black adhesive would be a nice touch though.

I know.. I might end up taking it off to use black tape instead... I'll try using a sharpy first and see if it cleans it up a little better.

I like it. I bet if you went to a car show and not tell them what it was you would get plenty of positive comments. Some people tend to think you have to spend a certain amount to look good.

Yeah, I think more people should try it out. See what it looks like on other cars and colors. Hell, its only 10 dollars anyways. And it protects the bumper from scrapes.

I think it looks great. Very creative of you. I wonder how it will hold up at triple digits speeds?
