after seeing the photochop, it looks like its sagging on the sides. id go with something that worked with the shape of the trunk a lil more.

Well it's definitely interesting.
I'd have to see a decent chop before weighing in.

xenon makes a good quaity eurethane *sp* piece,

but the lips and skirts are a bit ugly.

I have those skirts for our car but they sit WAY too low.

They looked decent online but, in person they are too aggressive and

on teh whole skee, they are too "edgy" or "boxy" for our body style.

You need something with smooth contours.

Think of our car as a woman, sexy curves, nice silhouette, and great ass with a face to boot,

and may I mention, she cleans up real well.

What you are looking at is a d ball for a muscle head.

Our car doesn't respond well to this approach.

Ladies don't have stridation, Butch Bitches do.

What's a few minutes of photoshop?
Yes, I think it's worth doing a chop.

If it looks like butt, and you are molding it like you mentioned, you could possibly fill in the little wave thingy. Or you could follow the wave inwards and cut out the little part that hangs down?
Eh I made a little example in mspaint to illustrate what I'm talking about.

Would probably want to round off that new angle in the example on the left.

Whatever, if you can get this lip for cheap and don't mind modifying it, I think it could look good.

No?
I blacked out part of the lip in the image on the left.
If you start at the left side of the lip on that picture, it swoops up and then turns into a straight edge. I'm saying you'd probably want to round that angle a little, so it's not such a sharp distinction between the two parts.
Make sense?

If you're definitely getting it, cut it rather than fill it (left example). And take it from me, get it molded right away - mine looks terrible because the fitment is way off and I don't have the money to get the car painted and have the lips molded (yet).
