wish i found this thread before i did my lip....i did the hack and chop method. it was a nail biter for sure, but came out well. im happy with it. makes the rear look so much better and the tanabes tuck nicely underneath.

Just tried to install today but having a few problems. How do you get the sides of the rear to stick with just tape? I put extra 3m tape and it still won't stick. Is there any other tape that will stick better besides the red 3m?

Red 3M tape is the best stuff. I just got mine installed today too, having issues as well with the sides sticking. I know it will stick if i can get it to heat up (sun) and then hold it down...but its pouring here in Socal right now so i'll try again after the rain stops. You could try heating it up (hairdryer) and then pressing it down. Adhesive promoter helps too.

if youre not in the warmer states, i suggest using a heat gun or blow dryer. i kinda regret putting mine on in the freezing cold but i was so desperate =X
also make sure not to heat it too long because then it will lose its adhesiveness.
