EZ Lip cheaper than anywhere!!!!

Not sure how many people know about this but the EZ lip its nothing but a garage door bottom seal!!!!! Yeap, just look it up, you could do your own with less than $15 including the two face tape. This will ruin a lot of peoples business but got to help out my AZ friends out!!!

If you really want to help them out youd tear the ez lip off their car.

Friends don't let friends buy EZ lips.

Yeah the Home Depot lip is an old hidden mod and should probably stay old and hidden.

This is what it looks like on a local member's car. (I think custom work was done to make it sit right perfectly against the lip)

I have to be careful as is pulling out of the driveway/ pull out on an angle (to avoid scraping). Any extra lips on the front (and my car is on the OEM suspension) and I'll be scraping that lip every time I leave or enter the driveway.

Hmm... I might be able to get a good deal on these. Working for an Acura/Subaru dealership might pay off. Definitely gonna check it out tomorrow! I think it looks pretty good, man.

No it won't work with the type s aspec kit on. I tried it and its not wide enough. Waiting for someone to try the sti lip for the 2011-2014 sti. I think its a bit wider.

I liked it....until I saw the gap. You can see the road right between the lip and bumper on the passenger side. Do not want.

Does the Sti splitter/lip bolt right up to a standard 04-06 front bumper with no lip?

The one everyone else does is the s204 "V Style"

Either way, The V style and MAYBE the CS lips are narrower than the TL.
Take it from someone who's dealt with 3 different kinds of Subie lips

Lastly the ones posted are slightly smaller I believe.
Get this one, still a little narrow/short but better looking than the one previously posted.

I want to try an STI lip on my base 05 bumper, but it doesnt appear it will bolt right up. They have different mounting locations. I don't think it would be all that hard to modify though.
