03 Front + WW Lip

As you guys know, the WW lip is designed for 00-02 front bumper.
Here's how it looks like on zan 03+ front bumper:



As you can see the lip is clearly not designed for the front bumper (see the middle part near the fog light holes) but it sits perfectly. If it's painted to match the car maybe it will help to camouflage the imperfection.

I know that it's been done before, just thought I'd share.

Let me know what you think.

-David

That actually doesn't look bad at all. The parts of the stock lip that isn't covered isn't much of an eyesore, and it actually looks good in black.

Then again, there's Wisin who has a WW lip that was made for the 03+ front.

Hmm. Actually, if that were painted to match, it would probably look perfectly fine.

I think I've read about it before, but does Duraspank know his sidemarkers are on backwards?

Ah, I remember now. Way back in EverythingCelica, a local SoCal member did this, I think back in 2004-5 - VSR_Deeno.

Looks good, I think it'd look better painted than how it is now.

Or, if you wanna leave it black, paint the stock lip the same color too.
