Default Rear Lip Question.

Well as some of you all know I had very big plans for the rear of my car but quickly faced the fact that my car was to low to do what I wanted to do unless I wanted to damage it. Im thinking of just getting an ING's kit all around now. The question is I installed a GFX rear lip on my car (drilled holes and everything) When I take off the GFX and install my ING's will the holes be showing or anything?

No, the ings starts at the reflector area and goes all the way down. It drops the car about 1.5 inches so you should be good.

Yes I know that. The set-up I wanted would have dropped it about 5 inches.

Well, it depends on what you want to do. I myself just used 2 taping screws on each side and i used double stick tape in the middle. The lip actually stays up by itself but i still used double stick tape + screws just to be sure it wont go anywhere


Im still paranoid my trunk spoiler is going to fly off one of these days. I always look in my rear view mirror to see if its still there haha
