A cheap lip? Ahh, not going to happen.

But what you can do is spend a little extra and get a urethane lip. Urethane bends and doesn't break. Most lips on modified cars (lower cars) end up getting broken off because of either bad road conditions, careless drivers or both. Cheap lips don't fit well some times and it can be frustrating. Unless you want to make a "Home Depot Lip", I would suggest getting the one you like an spending the money, this way you can have something you like as well as something that will last.

I've been coveting one of those lips for years myself. Every now and then people get together for a group buy but it's always at a time I've not had any spare cash. You might want to see if there's an interest. I've got to pay taxes so I'm out for a while

that xenon lip would be great, but i'd hate for a lip to be the best looking thing on my car. my car needs a lot of attention in other places.

the pig lip is a good representation of where my car is, it doesn't look out of place.

i'm planning on keeping it for awhile, i'll get there

Hmmm...can't remember the exact number but it was a group buy, I want to say about $165 shipped. It was very cheap...in my eyes. If you ever see one of these lips in person you will know what I mean...made very well and will stand up to a lot of abuse. Yeah...pretty sure it was $165...give or take $2 or $3. Good luck finding one.
