Ive looked through all the DIY threads. Just looking to install my kit and wanted to know how and what materials you used to install you lip kit. Pictures would be great and advice is awesome too.

Thanks,

Lazar

Not many people on here actually install their kits themselves, believe most ppl just get them painted and installed by their bodyshop.

Haha. Guess so but shops should usually do installation for free somewhat if you have them paint it for you.

The front lip is super easy to install, you can just snap it on and drill 1 hole on each side and bolt it. Side skirts is probably where it's hard and rear lip I believe is the same as front, snap on and bolt on each side.

That is what i thought. there are no pronges to drill holes in the rear or front lip. screw holes are on the sides so that should be easy. But really? only double sided tape?

Front lip. 4 screws on the side(left and right) 2 side each.

sides: You have to take your oem lip and all the clips and rubber piece.

Rear: 4 scres on the side(left and right) 2 on each side.

When you get your lip kit or whatever it is You can determine on how you want to do it.

If you get the real deal i think they come in pre drilled. So yea.

Lol @ body shop. I know its a Lexus but you can get your hands a little dirty? Just fit it and screw in the screws that light up with whatever holes are there and where necessary use 3M heavy duty double sided tape.

Just make sure you file down in the right areas to make sure that you have no gaps.
