No...................no it could not.
That's like saying a piece of painted PVC makes a nice intake, or that some gutter guard makes a nice grill..........................

I could see it working on a car with the SD lip painted all one color.

i like it,
how and what is used?
10-24-2011
Garage door sealant and double sided tape...as stated.

thanks, didnt read anything just saw the pics
ill look into it

Lmfao.............the decline of the GP community continues...............

i personally dont like the SD lip, so given that people are trying other things i am happy about that. dont hate on people trying to be innovative.

Actually, it might not be bad, if it wrapped front the wheel well, to where the center area begins, and taper it off...
But it going across the middle section just isnt right.

without people trying new things, this community dies. it's as simple as that.

doesnt dave have it on his?

i think on an 97-03 it could look good, but what throws it off is the actual bumper section under the fog lights isnt flush so there is a bump there that throws off the flow. maybe shave down the plastic right there and make it flush with the middle air dam?

the middle needs to be thicker, so that the lip is the same height from the ground all the way around. material needs to be added in the middle, not taken out on the sides.
10-25-2011
ok that was my other choice. so wat do you think should be added material wise? some quarter inch piece of plastic? my thoughts on adding material was that it would be noticeable from the bottom of the actual middle piece to the material added to it..

im not sure. in fact, it might even be easier to use a lip from another car, but you'd have to find one that is shaped correctly and has the right dimensions to it.

I personally think the front bumper should be left alone...period.
SD Lip and that thing that guy called a "lip" looked like ass.
Always has, always will.
There is a reason why it came on the Mach 1 from the factory...because it looks good on that car...NOT a Grand Prix.

Going to home depot and gorilla-glueing some piece of plastic to the bottom of your bumper, without trying to blend it or paint it, is lazy and RICER.

im not saying it doesnt look stupid. it doesnt flow with the lines of the car at all.
