cheapest way to get a lip b13 sentras only

[b-13det]

i was out one day at the local junk yard back in early 2008 looking for some parts for my cuzzen. i was thinking if i can actually take a junk lip some where and see if i can fit it my car. i found 3 lips. i walk around with 3 diffrent kind of lips trying it on the sentra i saw at the junk yard(best place to learn how to take something on and off with out having to have the FEAR of breaking it? if u havent figure it our yet,---->welcome to "pick-it-part, your local junk yard")frist pick was from integra old school DA,it was a nice fit but way too long, then i tried old school celica(complete weast of time), then i tried old school mazda 626 around years 84-88(2 piece lip),lworked great with alittle cutting and a heat gun. with a knife chopping off the rubber brackets on top of the lip, it fit right on. one thing u will need to know that it will be off by about .5in. place the center of the lip in the center of the bumper and line it up where u want it. screw in the lip to your bumper in the middle frist and move your way outwards. if u did put it exactually in the center u whould be off by .25in on each side. the bends on the mazda 626 lip alittle off so u got to use a heat gun to heat it up then bend the lip back then screw it to make it look good. i havnet tryied it on the se-r bumper but i know that the regular sentra bumper works. dont 4 get your lip only looks as nice as how u can mount it.

*Tool u need to install:

-heat gun<-----if u live in california for anywhere hot just leave the bumper out side for about 30min in the summer sun u be good

-screw(YES that include screw driver ) to aline ur lip with bumper

-knife(i was @ the junk yard c'mon ) something to gauge a hole in your bumper with

-nuts and bolts to finish mounting on lip

EZ as that try it out u dont if u dont have a lip. you will lose nothing only 5$ got the lip at the junk yard.

look like this when complete

Very cool find. If you can get some additional pics of the mounting and stuff (and the overall look) and add them to this, I'll put it in our Table of Contents for future reference.

I think you might be talking about a 88-92 mazda 626. I have one as well as an mx-6. The 626 does have a 2 piece lip and the mx-6 a one piece lip.mx-6
