Default painted stock lip to look "CS style"

i got the inspiration from poopile :P but saving up for the classic chin is hard, saving for the CS front bumper is harder, but this project cost me about $12 i think haha

BEFORE


AND AFTER






pretty simple to do, but the results were way better than i thought! of course it doesnt look as good as getting a chin spoiler or any other bumper, but this was probably the best bang for buck mod ive done! thanks again poopile for the idea

Little things like that help the visual a lot in the end.
