3D Design Lip molded to Mtech front end

I have a 3D Design lip on my mtech front end that looked great, but was starting to fall apart.
The sides were starting to get loose, and an empty space between the lip and bumper was starting to show.

I was at a speed element meet a couple weeks back where I saw Armando (armed_man on ig) from VanKulture who recently got his front lip molded to his bumper. I loved the way the lines from his lip showed, and since I already had the idea to get my lip molded before, I thought I'd give it a shot.

Here are a few teases before I get the bumper put back on.

Might not be the craziest mod in the world, but just wanted to do something a little different. Let me know what you guys think!

I agree. It would look so much better if you blended the sides in. I did the same thing with my 3D Design lip.

That looks super awesome man! I know I could've done the sides; just wanted to go with what I had in my mind! Nevertheless, I'm happy with the way it came out!

Before I get roasted for it, I have my license plate zip tied there with yellow tape around it cause I didn't have my tow hook mount on me and didn't want to scratch my fresh paint with my license plate flapping in the wind while driving.

But, here it is MOUNTED
