I have to redo mine... I used 3m tape and it didn't hold. I guess I have to epoxy. BTW, sewell have these for under 300 hundred without group buy(coupon: clublexus).

I'd hate to sand then epoxy. If anyone installed without sanding and epoxy...let me know if that worked out well.

Default TTE lip

Hi, I just joined the CL forum. Would like to first say thanks to all you guys for putting all these resources on here. I have decided just last week to re paint my 98 gs4 since it was vandalized w/ a key. Owned her for four years. I just purchased the TTE lip because of the agressive look of your gs. Can't wait for it all to come together. Thanks for the pic.

Welcome and do post pics once you have it installed. Did you cheat on your girlfriend to make her want to key your car? Regardless of the reason it does suck to hear.

Sorry not hijack your thread or anything but this goes out to oohpapi44.

How much did it cost you to mold it ( we are both in NYC ) . I had mine screwed on and my father drove it one day and came back like nothing happened. Then he said 10 min later oh by the way - part of you car is in your back seat. LoL! Family - especially dad, can't do nothing. So I can pretty much get it repainted for cheap but would need a shop to mold it. Do you know how much they would charge to paint and mold and a separate price just to mold if painted already.
