The lip is not all that bad...what kills me is the ends of the lip. On every car it always looks funny like it comes in too far...

You know what? After months of looking for a decently priced front lip, I think I'll do this. Being stationed in Vegas, I can't afford to spend $200 every time I hit a rough patch of road (approximately ever 2 weeks). Honda shmonda. They're not the only ones doing this. If someone with a WRX (which costs twice as much as my base model Coby) can do this, who am I to say I won't because I want one pre-fitted from a company who wants to make an extra $150 off my non-creativeness? We're not driving Vipers, Vettes, and Ferraris, so why does it matter? The governor on my car won"t let me do more than 110 (soon to change) so I have no worries. I'll also try the full body lip on the Cobalt since the only advice is that it looks like **** on a Civic. Our cars aren't Civics. If it's a fail then I'll put photos here warning that it looks like ****, scrap it, and continue with my day of getting looks, compliments, and questions as to what exactly my car is (I love that part. They act so surprised). So kiss my ass all who think they should pay hundreds of $ because they lack the skills to undertake a small project like this. That's like paying $200 for black headlights when it only takes a spray paint can (or 2), an oven, and patience to do the exact same thing. $10 and several hrs later I had the exact same thing. I hope my DIYers live a long, healthy, and money saving life.
