How much was it to do whole carOkay, this is my how-to on the Home Depot Lip:
What you need is a garage door seal
Some 3M red double sided tape
Image comming soon!
Some self threading screws or any screw that is not longer than 1 1/2 inches.
A razor blade.
and thats it! total price for all is around $16.
here is how you do it:
1. raise the car and put it on jackstands. you can do it with the car in its normal hight but I have better clearance whe the car is up.
2. put the 3M tape on the door seal.
pic comming soon!
3. clean the bottom of your car, where the lip is going on.
4. start putting the lip on the side of the car that you preffer and follow the line where the paint ends.
5. you don't need to remove the plastic part in the middle just follow the line.
6. when you are done cut the exess rubber with the razor blade
7. screw the self threading well..screws in the beggining of the lip, where it curves under the fog, and in the diagonal parts where the bumper ends and the plastic part beggins. sorry for the dirty picture.
this is what you end up with
you are done, congratulations!!
How much, I wanna do it my 6Thanks !!! yeah .. when I tell people how much it cost me ... they are shocked
I'd imagine that putting a few extra screws in wouldn't be a bad thing. Also, when you apply the 3M tape, be sure to prep the area with rubbing alcohol for better adhesion.
Has anyone done this to a 03 Protege yet?
