07 SE lip condition - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

just wonder how is the front lip on your cars? i can imagine some have been damaged. The front lip is pretty low for a stock car and would be worse if your lowered.

So question is ... is your lip still mint ? or is there Cracks or scuffs from bottoming out.

i personally take my take my time going when going over a bump or what not.

I bottom out sometimes no matter how hard I try to avoid it.

Actually when compared with my 93 LE, the lip is about the same height off the ground. I think the lip just appears low.

Not only is it low, but the corners stick way out. I scraped the lower front driver's side corner of mine turning into an "end" parking space where the curb on the driver's side of my car was about twice as high as normal.

WTF????????????????? What does her religion has to do with anything?

My front lip has some scratches and dings from general road conditions and pebbles/debris (stock suspension and rims/tires).

It was really bad when I was driving with my stock wheels for awhile. I eventually had to put the stock springs back on to avoid bottoming out everywhere.

I have "scuffs" under each of the fog lights where it is lower then the rest of the lip... I originally thought I was rubbing a skid plate......

geoff5093 · 07-13-2007, 03:20 PM

Never scrapped the lip yet, although I have scrapped bottom once or twice.

I' ve got a 16" scrape (all the way to the plastic) on my front lip. Got it from one those bumper curbs in shopping areas.

jaysi09 · 07-13-2007, 08:01 PM

i have scuffs on both sides of the lip by the fogs. both came from different areas. one, when i was backing out of this one steep driveway it scratched it. and the 2nd was from a bump

the car is too low for stock IMO
