I use to be on a Mazda6 forum and most guys used rubber garage door sealer. Is that what you're talking about? It looked alright on 6s, but I don't know how it'd look on a G.

Just to clarify; are you wanting to add the lip for looks? Or to help prevent your bumper from scraping and damaging the paint?

The lip will obviously make your front even lower and scraping will still occur - but the HD lip is made from a soft foam/sponge like material so it could also help cusion and soften the blow. I dont know how long it would hold up though.

This looks Much Better.

There's a 350Z on San Fernando, CA that rolls literally about 2" from the ground... and it has some round foam protector on the Lip to prevent scraping... that's the only part of the car that looks hideous. I will take a pic of it next time i see it.
