Default Lip installed

I know everyone has mixed feelings about the eBay. I had to see for myself maybe I got lucky but the fit was awesome and the paint shop said it was in great shape only charged me 100 bucks to paint. I can say so far I'm pleased with it.

The lip was 75 and I paid 100 for paint. You know I didn't even take other angles I got excited and stopped with the pics lol.

Looks nice from the front. What bumper points did you screw in to?

I used the existing screws in the bumper and it's pretty secure. It has some small gaps that I may screw in. The lip already has pre drilled holes to use. It's not a big deal for me to drill because when I took the front plate off I have holes in the bumper so I'm looking for a smaller bracket to put the place of my old front license bracket.

That might be smart too. I scrape every time I leave my driveway and I'm not even lowered. This was the main reason I didn't want to pay 1000.00 for a lip that I knew would get scratched up.

Just want to confirm, you did install with zero drilling? I've been thinking of getting this exact lip for a while now and after seeing yours im about to just do it lol.
