Sadly i wish the lip came pre drilled that would be much easier. steps would be to put double sided tape to see the fitment, drill the hole on the clips of the lip, and put the screws in under the car which there is already screws there. Tomorrow my brother is going to take my car for the installation of the lip and exhaust, i will tell him to take pictures. i don't think i will paint the lip either.

How many days for shipping? The listing said it may be up to 1/24...

And what do you mean you don't have to drill holes??

I thought to my understanding that after the lip has been put on you secure it with screws, but no, under the bumper it already comes ready to put the screws with the lip, and i ordered it on Wednesday and arrived today.

Ohh? Could it be that you're car previously had a front lip installed before? Because many people telling me that you have to drill your own holes under the bumper to mount the lip.


But. If you don't mind, take pics of the installation process please.

Ohh I see what you mean. But how many actually line up with the lip? I heard there are like 2 screws that line up at the corners right? You still need to drill like 5-8 more to fully secure it.

I had the lip already on, first step was line the clips to the car clips and let somebody hold the lip while you screw in the screws the car comes with, after the screws are in on the clips, the lip has like a little mark and thats where you will put the screws the lip comes with, see picture below if any question just let me know to try to help.
Put the lip with the screws of the car, first part
Lip on with original car screws
The mark of the lip where you will put the screws that comes with the lip, this will make a hole under your bumper
Project done, more pictures later

Very nice, looks good.

So the 6 clips will line up with factory screws. I'm assuming these 6 won't hold the lip well?

How many holes did you drill afterward?

I put a couple washers in the middle of the lip see how your lip goes up a bit i wanted mine to flow better it helped it. I just took mine off today getting ready for the new lip.

if you don't drill the holes on the bumper, would the lip flap around at high speed since its only held by the screw in the back?
