EZ-Lip

Has anyone installed this product on their FR-S? Looks like a cool, cheap alternative to an STI type lip. $30 bucks is tempting.

It's just garage door liner from lowes with double sided tape. I did this 10 years ago on my 2g because there are no lips offered for dsm's at the time. Looks good for the cost, last forever, and protects the bumper.

Why not just buy a $3000 car instead if you can only afford junk parts for it?

Wow you guys are hating hard on this lol. While I agree that there's no reason to pay much for it, it is a good option if you want something super subtle.

I wouldn't call it hating.

Hating means talking shit on something that looks great and you're mad you cant have it, but this is pure shit.

Cheap people are cheap

Dunno how anymore could think that looks good. Watch the vid, you can see how warped it is from trying to go around the curve...

Yeah you should just pay the 500 bucks for the plastic stuff that does nothing rather then 50 for that stuff that does nothing.

Better yet you could pay a thousand bucks for the carbon fiber stuff that does nothing but is slightly lighter. That way you can add useless weight to your car without adding so much useless weight to your car.

Did install an EZ Lip, under my ChargedSpeed front lip. Won't look great if it is used without another lip.
