Zoom in and look, there are no gaps and weren't any on the sides either (take my word for it)

thanks for the pic, looks good... so far... can you post some pics of a side view when you are done? Curious to see how this lip contours a OEM sides...

thanks!

How do you install a front lip on a 09? Sorry for noob question. Do you have to cut the front bumper becuase its 1 piece? Might be interested in a 09 front lip aswell

it kinda grabs the front of the bumper no cutting it has 2 small pre drilled holes that u would put some small screws or something in the wheel well... forgot to take pics when they test fitted it. kinda hard for me to explain stuff.. ima try to calla couple shops monday and see if i can get it painted... thinkin about using double side tape to make it snug... anyone done this before... i know its different on 09-10
