    Yea, i still havent made any kind of supports for it yet. My friends dad has a panoz track car with the same lip concept but its much stiffer material. I am prob gonna go that route. My lip will expand when it gets hot. It will start to flare out where the rivets are. Or maybe i will just get the 99 and up si lip and fit it on my car. I really dnt like any lips that they make for my car. I want something diff. .....but thats kinda hard with a honda civic! haha

    It does bend under when sitting still, but when i drive on the highway, it will bend under more. Its just the way that it contoured to the bumper when i screwed it on. That pic was taken when i was prob doin about 75-80, tryin to follow Bikerj11.
